OP if in ground, you could line the hole with chicken wire to protect from moles (which hunt grubs in fresh loose soil), and you can protect from rabbits with a low profile solution like three "Vigoro 18 in. Black Steel Wire Black garden fence" things from Home Depot, they clip together and form a barrier, just prune to keep plant from touching the ground. Squirrels? I didn't know they were a problem.
Lastly you can run green fishing line around trees or even tall garden stakes to protect from deer. plant strategically for max sun and natural protection, nearby bushes or whatever that you can create a near invisible perimeter around. There is green braided non reflective line on eBay ships from China, cheap and works well.
Fingers crossed, I'm harvesting a sativa in two days that fared very well with everything mentioned
