Cecil if you see this this is the Big Martin Unknown ; )For the first time as i never tried this before but have the time now to do this im putting my unknown tree which always leaves me unripe figs, im putting in garage startin tonight and will whell out in morning when temps alow or at least open garage door for the eat morning to shine on it, i should have thought about this before temops were dropping a lot of nights in the 40s with daily highs in 50s now. Its supposed to be in 60s this weekend with some possible rain a so called warmup. Anyways when i was moving it 2 half ripe figs just fell off so i might have done this to late, i also had 2 nice ripe figs to eat today. Several things that i never paid attention to before that i have noticed on my tree's,now that weather has changed so have the figs somewhat, they turn darker when ripe inside and outside of fig, also they tend to lose there sweetness somewhat, although 1 fig off this tree kinda surprised me today with the inside color as it was brown sugar color , im not used to this color inside at all im used to light to dark red colors of my figs so i was skeptical to eat it im just not used to seeing that , but heck i tried it and i was shocked that it was very sweet on this 1 fig. So in a nutshell for me anyways for first time i pay more attention since retirement and now really notice how weather affects my tree's as it gets colder, so although too late to probably save a lot of the figs getting ripe (greedy) i try anyways and next year have my eyes open and do this earlier for this tree as others are done with there figs. Here for your pleasure i post some more pictures only wish i could come winter when not much conversaton on this forum, course i can always show pictures of some darn snow!
