We don't have animal problems in this area (wild hogs, deer, and jackrabbits but they don't come in to where the gardens are and most gardens are fenced)...... Been a bad summer as far as moisture. One extreme to the next (mud or dust)....
Anyway, was mowing a little piece the other day covered with nettle. Noticed some places had been cut and fresh growing in. Guy comes along (owner) with a bag and gathers up a bunch. asked what he was doing with it and he said to chop it up, soak it in water til it gets ripe, and water the tomatoes with it (not more than 2-3 times per week). Said he has never found a better fertilizer and it keeps the slugs off the plants.

Thought he was just prettying up the area and commented on it one day when I saw him. Said he never saws a track in his fields with that border and never lost anything except for people stealing his flowers and herbs........
