Brown Turkey figs?

17 years ago

I planted 2 fig trees 4 years ago.They were the same size, both small. The first year one of them grew double the size of the other, but the smaller one had about 9 figs. The larger one had none, so I figured it put its energy into growing. The next season both of them looked dead until late into the season. The smaller one produced some figs, but there wasn't enough time to ripen before the cold weather hit. This year, the smaller one has put out 3 figs, and the other one still has no fruit. They both are slowly putting out leaves. The weather hasn't cooperated, getting warm, (65ish) then cold with our New Mexico winds. Both figs were planted in the same soil, maybe 5 feet from each other. I have given them both compost each spring and fall, same amount of water, etc. Anyone have any ideas about what I might need to do to increase production? They haven't gotten much taller than the first year.
