Summer fig cuttings - when to pot separately?

11 years ago

Hi folks,

After reading a couple of old threads here, I decided to try to take some cuttings from a neighbor's fig mid summer. July 19th to be exact. Stuck them in damp coir with baggies but because I was not anticipating any success, they are 2-3 per slightly larger then a Red Solo cup pot. (BTW, I totally understand the reasons for clear cups!!) Well it kinda looks like they have taken. But I have no idea how larger a root system. I would like to separate into individual pots but not sure when I should risk the roots. I would like to get them separated before root entanglement, but not before they have a good system. Any suggestions??

Also because I will be overwintering these in a chilly corner of my RV (home), space is a premium. Can I put them into the same size pots till spring? I have three others in larger(1 gallon size) that will also be living under the dinette once dormant. It stays pretty chilly in the corners of this place in the winter. Hopefully enough to hold dormancy.
