   One of my four is all total new growth.  All four   
   are on their third year.  I made sure they (everyone)   
   was watered in the winter.   
      
   All three on my Choke Berries are fine.  And my   
   Goji and loving life.  My back hurts just thinking   
   of picking them.  I have a months or so before   
   that starts.  Chock's are much easier to pick:   
   one once in the fall.
