I would completely recommend deer netting.
Everytime I go out to my plot, I hear or see deer running away...so I know they are always nearby. I too was having problems with deer eating my little seedlings earlier in the year, so I put up a perimeter of deer netting, and haven't had a single deer or other animal problem since.
It's worth it's weight in gold if you ask me. Just an idea, but one worth looking into, imo.

Netting is your best bet as previously recommended, however, if that negates your "stealth" grow then you might look into predator urine (wolf, wolverine, coyote, etc) found here: http://www.predatorpee.com/

Good luck my friend.

I've heard great things about liquid fence from others who've had the same problem. I used deer netting around my large veggie garden last year, and only had a few occasions where something had gotten into the garden. The only bad thing I can think of about that netting is I had a lot of lizards and a few birds that managed to get caught up in the stuff and died. But that could also just be Darwinism playing it's role. Good luck with those damn deer!

I took a couple pot pie tins, poked a hole..tied some fishing line.. and tied them to tree branches close by. I also put some old metal fence around mine, and dont have any problems!I also read that deer hate garlic, and red peppers, and the smell of rotten eggs. So I took a 5 gal jug and loaded it with a TON of crushed red peppers, garlic, about 12 egg whites(plus I save my hair clippings after cutting and throw it in) fill it up with water and let it sit in the sun for a few days. Then just poor it around the perimiter of your plants(just not too close) and on near by tree trunks. I have used it around my corn too, and they havnt been back since! I would mix up a batch atleast once a month, to keep it potent.http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/nn52/Kushcrosser/Outdoorpics76010.jpg
