Quick--plant some more.<BR/><BR/>What I've done when the birds attack is plant the seeds in trays or peat pots and wait till they much farther along before transplanting them to the garden. But you never know what kind of mood the birds are in. Everything was fine around here until two days ago. Then I looked out in the yard where I'd put some trays of tomato seedlings and noticed several of them had been nipped off.<BR/><BR/>It's a constant battle.Ed Bruskehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12217850970833353800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5603202988847584283.post-55545954576627113472007-05-07T11:08:00.000-04:002007-05-07T11:08:00.000-04:00Great article.

What became of your plants after the birds? I am having the same problem right now. I planted some sugar snap pea plants, and after barely breaking ground, they've all been nibbled. Will they survive? I was so looking forward to fresh sugar snap peas.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13194120188040608319noreply@blogger.com
