How Can I Help My Vegetables Grow Back?
Posted by admin on January 19, 2010
Small animals nibbled on my vegetables and I need to know what I can do to help the leaves grow back on them. I already know how to keep the animals out now, I just not sure if there’s something I can use to grow back the plants.
If they nibbled all the leaves off, and left just the stem, the only thing you can do is replant. If they left some leaves, the plant will keep on growing. I have had rabbits nibble off the leaves on both green beans and gourds in the past, and that is what happened to mine.
It depends on how far gone they are. If there is still enough plant there to grow from I would suggest putting some miracle grow on it and see what happens.
Keep watering like you have been doing. You will know if there is anything left in about a week.
