Winterizing and Plant Starting

I got some plant starter solution the other day for some new plantings and noticed two things about it. One is the ingredients are perfect for palms. We actually have a winter here, and while palms do not go dormant, I certainly want them to focus on roots because that is where the energy is stored to regrow cold damaged fronds. I was just doing this for my small newly planted palms, but then am thinking this might be a good thing for palms in general going into and during winter.

Any thoughts?
