Well I got my wish for rain, couple days this week, good thing too as my gravity fed water barrels were empty. But the rain really caused the weeds to shoot up and also bring out the slugs! Note the little orange jar, that is my approach to slugs, in jar of gasoline and hand pick 'em. We have THOUSANDS of slugs, in the past I've tried beer, Slugo and last year even put up a sand barrier, nothing works very well. Tried chickens one year, they do eat some but do more damage with their stracthing then they're worth.
