I would still mess it up.
Not really it is those wascally wabbits and deer. Poor soil too.

And they’re by far the easiest vegetable to grow yourself, so much so that being called a ‘radish farmer’ is an insult.

Pro tip: sprinkle your piss in the garden regularily, it works at fertilizer and keeps deer and possibly most other herbivorous mammals at bay. If you have neighbors, it’s recommendable to, uh, collect it in the bathroom into a jar or jug instead of doing it on spot.

I’ve heard that man piss keeps a lot of animals away. The testosterone in it wards off many animals, including predators if you have chickens (I did last year, first my dog killed some, then a bear killed all, presumably a bear. Going with Guinea Hens this spring instead)
No neighbors to speak of here, I will start peeing out there and hope it works, I am most concerned with protecting my apple seedlings I am going to start shortly, previous years fruit trees get eaten.

See I’ve heard the opposite, at least for deer. Deer seek out salts since they grow antlers every year which takes a ton of calcium, so peeing on trees makes them target the bark where you’ve peed. Not totally sure tho

I’m not a man. Nothing to do with testosterone.

They’re easier than zucchini? Does that make keeping radishes from taking over their entire plots actually kind of difficult or do they just grow perfectly only where you plant them?
harambe69@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 days ago
The latter. But don’t plant anything else nearby. The grow damn fast and shadow everything around them.
