Seeing IBH post about sunflowers got me thinking. I don't think I've ever shared this little gem before?
Quite a few years ago (15)? I planted about 6_8 Giant brand seeds around a garden by my cabin just for fun. They got to be from 9 _12 feet tall and a super heavy stalk.
When fall came, the bucks absolutely hammered them!!
Since then, I've done it every year. Have not seen even one not get rubbed.
100%.
If they get a big enough stalk, even big heavy bucks can't tip them over.
They do need to be caged in though as the deer will eat them when small and growing.
Take the cages off mid Oct and watch out!
Give it a try guys.
