Answers: - you should ask your local gardeners & those that sell garden plants ~ as they usually are okay knowledge on the local environment ~ nouns, soil, weather & etc of your area.
- I've get some tips tried & tested to keep rodents lk rabbits, rats, squirrels stale plants. Sprinkle pepper or dried chilies or even cumin powder around. The pepper can be ground pepper or just powder form around the plant & rub it a bit on the stem & the fruit itself. You don't hold to shower it too much but just ample around the plant & fruit itself. U don't hv to do it daily but if it's windy/rained thn. put some more till it go off.
Rodents are usually sensitive towards the smell & don't lk spicy strong smell lk tht.
Even Martha Steward uses this method.
- You can also wrap the fruit up wth some plastic wth mini punched hole for drying purposes.
Wish u luck!
