Dwarf chopped off??
 
What kind of critter can chop off a 10" dwarf tomato completely at ground level and leave no trace? Only thing around here are rabbits I thought but never seen them do that. After the seedling phase rabbits usually leave them alone? What about Voles??

I lost my very first indigo blue tomato to rats.
The remaining stub never grew back.

deer will eat all the flowers off the tomatoes, groundhogs, rabbits... rats.. something thirsty probably.

[B][SIZE=4][FONT=Garamond]The deer around here will eat every part of a tomato plant (fruit, leaves, and stems). Hence the reason I have to leave the plants in the garage at night![/FONT][/SIZE][/B]

They say if you lay fence down in an area they don't like the feel when they walk on it.
But would be a nuisance with grass growing through it.
