Everything was working fine at 5pm cst, then was gone for awhile and now at 10pm cst cannot get into gardens and friends gardens but brewery, dragon cave and tribal tree are working.

Exactly the same issue here. Can get into Brewery and dragon cave and tribal tree but cannot get into gardens or friend gardens.

The game came up long enough for me to clear and replant 1 garden then went down again.

Oh great. My game quit working while I was in it after posting my previous message.

FYI, I was unable to get into the game for about 4 hours starting around 4:00pm cst but was finally able to get in around 8:15pm cst.
