In this video, I show some of the fig trees that I am growing in the greenhouse this year to try and get them more established and potentially get some main crop figs.

Best of luck with your figs this year, Peter. You have some really nice varieties there. 👍🏽

Thanks, Dom! I’m hoping they all do well in the greenhouse this year. I potted up even more of the cuttings after this video was filmed, so it is almost completely full of fig trees now lol. I almost didn’t bother posting this video as I filmed it over 2 weeks ago, so a lot will have changed, but thought I might as well anyway.

Looking good. Yeah my BM was a bit later waking up, maybe they take a bit longer. Most of my cuttings this year got hit with a late frost, so I'm hoping they resprout! Hopefully you can get a maincrop this year 🙌🌿

Thanks, Conor! Yeah, maybe BM does take longer to wake up than some other varieties. Of course, this was filmed over 2 weeks ago, so hopefully it’s grown more since 🤞. I’ll have to do some more updates soon. Yeah, that frost damage looked pretty bad. I hope they bounce back soon 🤞

Your figs seedling looks good and they seem to be well fertilized. Your best bet is to get them established this year and let the main truck thickens. You may need to prune the main stem in Aug. this will allow multi branching and will help ripen the main crop figs.

Thanks, Sam. Yeah, this year I’ll probably try and focus on growth for these small ones. I have a few larger trees I’m hoping I can get to produce this year 🤞. Good idea to get them to branch out later in the summer 👍

I must admit I'm getting a bit disillusioned with figs at the moment 🙄. Brebas all dropped and no sign of any of my pot grown plants being capable of producing main crop figs. I think they need a polytunnel or greenhouse like you are using Peter 😁

Lol, yeah for some reason this year a lot of people seem to be having trouble with brebas despite the reasonably mild winter and spring. I’ll have to check on mine soon. Yeah, a greenhouse may be the best way to go for a better chance of getting a decent crop. Although I’ve still yet to get any, although most of my trees I’ve tried in the greenhouse in previous years have been very small.

Nice collection Peter. I have only one Brown turkey growing out in my garden, but plan to graft other varieties to it. What variety of scion would you suggest?
@PeterEntwistle

Thanks, Mike. I haven’t had any fruit from any of my figs yet, although one I think should do pretty well, based on other people’s experiences would be ‘Desert King’. It’s meant to be a very reliable breba producer. I’m hoping one of mine might be able to fruit next year.

Hello Peter, please provide me a link to your video how do you protect the cirrus plant during wintertime? What devices do you have to check greenhouse temperature etc

This is the most recent video I did back in November kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bcyPiKqUsaq0lqc.html I can’t remember how much detail I went into but I did show the heater.

nice varieties, are there (good) breba crop forming types that can ripen outdoors for you?
@PeterEntwistle
@PeterEntwistle 2 ай бұрын
Thanks, yeah most of the ones I showed in this video will only produce main crop and will need a greenhouse to ripen in time here. But yeah there are several breba-producing figs I grow outside too. I’m hoping my ‘Brown Turkey’ (I think it’s referred to as English Brown Turkey in the US, as confusingly there are a few different varieties with the same name), that I planted in the ground might be able to ripen a few figs this year. Others I have that are meant to work well outdoors here for brebas include Kadota, Violette de Bordeaux, Desert King and Goutte D'Or. I have a number of others too, but I don’t expect any fruit from most of them as they are still quite immature.
