Just saw this,We have had a very mild winter so far.I did look at them today and they are smaller than last year due to my late planting.I still have plenty of foliage and can't tell just how large they got.It's after they decompose and the holes are visible then I'll see the results.I did plant with the radishes, hairy vetch that will start to grow again when the temps get into the 40's.That should be in late March.It should help keep the ground from cracking on the surface.I'll mow the vetch to kill it around the first of May and plant around Memorial Day.I'll take some pictures in the spring after the radishes decompose.
