Woman v. nature
I had fair success with starting seeds indoors this year -- got some sprouts -- the seeds that did the best were white marigold seeds (that is, the flowers are supposed to be white.)
I transplanted some of them outside on Thursday night. Yesterday morning I found that two of them had been nibbled all the say down to the seed leaves (the tops of the plants were gone.) This morning I found that the varmint had come back for more -- one of the plants is totally gone.
