We have slugs. Look, my husband has the greenest thumb but slugfest city her. Eeew, I love all critters but slugs are hard to warm up too. They eat the begins sprouts of our sunflowers regularly. Grew them in containers this yr. and did well. Grew a giant fig tree from a wee cutting, we sure have that still. Maybe ten yrs. old and everyone enjoys it. Between the slugs, moles, and smaller space we have given up on veggies. I am having flashbacks of our hundred lb. plus pumpkin and the eighty pounder ten years back when we lived on lotsa land. Such a grand pumpkins that man can grow, I freekin love pumpkins.
