And I've been told the opposite. From what I know, the reason you water the crap out of the trees now is so there's moisture available all winter long. But if you water in February you risk thawing out the roots; which tells the tree winter is over and it starts up its spring routine.
For me, it's water the trees and lawn now, then next weekend I'm planning on putting down the Scotts Winter Care and also spreading seed on the lawn. Seed on a newer lawn helps it develop and will fill in any spots.
