From: Greg Ruckert <greg at ezi-learn.com.au> on 1997.06.12 at 02:20:29(825) Eduardo, There has been a massive amount of discussion on Dahlia-Net recently as the Americans plants push through. While some correspondents favour sprinkling a layer of oatbran around the plants (I worry about it going mouldy) consenus is that copper strips make a very effective barrier. The little varmits are shocked away from your babies. As we are moving into winter all my Arisaema seedlings (mostly 2 months old) are inside. I found a slug on one of my name tags, no idea where it came from, but took great delight despatching it to the coals in our fire.
