Hey guys I havent been on for a while, but I was a little unlucky this winter. First of something attacked my plants I heard about this hapening, but did not think it would happen to me so I repoted my plants and they were trying to recover and I still put them into dormancy. II went on vacation and when I came back my plants were all tiped over and turned upside down in the snow. I had to look for them in the snow alot of them were hard to find. I put them in their pots inside and I keeped them inside. I thought i should put them back out side to go through dormancy again and they all froze to death. All of the ones I put outside are dead. Now the ones inside are comming out of dormancy I hope its not to early.

Hey Brandon, welcome back. Sorry to hear about your misfortunes this winter. I don't think it's too early for plants to come out of dormancy as long as they won't freeze again. Many of my plants are starting to put out a bit of new growth now and a few others here on the forum have taken their plants out of dormancy.

Awh, that's too bad about the plants. At least you have some left though!

As far as dormancy, my plants have started to wake up on their own. I don't have rapid growth, but they're putting out new leaves slowly, so I wouldn't worry about it.
