First let me say that I truly enjoy this site and appreciate all the time put in by the moderators. The amount of information is truly amazing.

I intend to follow Garrett's guide to roses beginning next season (March for my zone 7). :D I'm in southern Tennessee, where we are in the 60's daily and 47 at night. My garden is organic, and I mix up my own teas and amendments. I have a 10 year old compost pile, used in the gardens and replenished.

My question regards what to use for overwintering bad insects and fungi. I've been using corn meal happily. I want to get a jump on the bad guys before the growing season begins. Some folks recommend using lime sulfur now to kill spores. Just wondering what your thoughts are about winter treatments.

Thanks,
