Question:

Does anyone continue liquid plant food organic feeding throughout the winter?

Was wondering if Common practice to continue to mix with water During winter months leading into spring?

I stop all fertilizing in winter. The trees will not absorb so it's a waste of money.
 
I am waiting for them to bud out in the spring before showing pictures of them.
You got my number... Hope you are well. I slip potted my BS I bought from you in a new Mica pot. I got rid of some of the top branches after this photo. I want to thicken the bottom branches first. @Cajunrider

Looking good
 
Down here the winter temps are not cold enough to stop all growth so roots are still active on evergreen trees. We did some trials a few years ago with pairs of JBP. One fertilized each month through winter the other not fertilized. Spring growth in the fertilized trees was way stronger which means winter fertilizer can be useful in some places. I now fertilize all evergreen trees through our mild winters.
Deciduous trees can't absorb or use nutrients without leaves so no point fertilizing deciduous in winter.

If you are not sure if winter fert is right for your area just do a trial as above and see what results you get at your place.
 
Some of the osmocote fertilizer are still on the soil in winter from spring, on some of my tree's that I want to grow - but other then that I stop all ferts and just watch watering
