Crazy Question - How many of you have had your dogs interfere with your grows?

at the end of the day youll be smoking your own hair unless you use lunch lady mesh. i keep finding my wifes hair in buds and she only has contact with the plants once a month or so

i have a small outdoor cat and he doesnt care about the plants either but ive seen other people with cats eating leaves and rubbing against them

For the most part I keep them out although they don't seem too interested beyond kind of wondering what I'm up to in there. I keep my dogs out of the grow room for the safety of their eyes mostly but also to help keep the amount of hair in my grow area down. They don't even shed very much but you'll be amazed at how much hair you will find in your tent and on your plants, especially if you have long hair and/or a beard. I try to keep it down because I don't want to smoke any more hair than I have to and even if you see and remove it before harvest it tears up trichomes. During veg it's no big deal but I still try to maintain good habits like keeping the pets away, keep the floor clean, brush my hair before I go in, etc. The cat is not allowed in the grow room that houses the tent at all, no exceptions. She might be just fine in there but she might fuck something up, I'm not willing to gamble with my grow.

Thanks, I'm glad I asked! I didn't even consider how pet or human hair might compromise harvest. It's also valuable to know your dog doesn't show much interest.

dogs dont mind or care about the plants, maybe its best to keep them apart due to hairs and pests. besides with a young dog, you can teach him not to mess with them

I am acquiring my components and am awaiting news from Seedman that my payment has been received. I am also preparing to move into a new home. Once moved, I intend to be "rescued" by a puppy. In addition to puppy-proofing my yard/house, I don't want him/her to bother with my grow tent. Anybody have any lessons they care to share?
