I am not receiving any posts. Is the site down or have I lost contact?

No, you're fine. No one is contributing. No posts.

It's winter.

Unless you are growing cabbages and similar leafy greens, few people
garden this time of year. :-)


I don't understand, it is the best time to plant and to move things around.
Prune the trees as you can see all the crossed limbs, and the falling stuff
doesn't crush the flowers. I have been hauling pecan shells and using them
to cover the paths in and around the beds.

Merry Christmas.

Oh what you are doing is fine!

I was talking about actual winter gardening... Cruciferous veggies are
frost resistant. Cabbages, Chard, Kale, Brussel sprouts and Brocolli
etc. do best this time of year.

I personally like to grow winter chard:
