Must be a difference in locales/food sources/etc.....or just plain luck. The squirrels here have never fucked with my veggies...in the garden...or in my dome GH......and I've never had anything go after the ganja whatsoever. We have the turkeys here as well....a flock of about 20 cruise through every-so-often. I think they'd be here far more but my dog barks at just about >anything<....so the turkey and the deer (10 regulars in a small herd...all does of varying ages) and the other critters stay at bay most of the time. The only thing that doesn't flinch at his noisiness are the bears. The mountain lions only seem to come in the middle of the night according to the 3 game cameras I have onsite.
