Bass favorite fig

3 years ago
last modified: 3 years ago

It finally ripened yesterday. I really like it's sharp sweet tangy pulp kind of like home made current jam or home made cranberry sauce, pulp is not as thick as Black Madeira, but very close, very good seed crunch, skin is sweet soft all the way to the stem. It's different taste profile, but as good as Black MadeiraPictures are under the comments because it didn't give me the option to upload picturesAnna

    Hello Martin, I am having difficulty to make new post, I made ttwo posts but they are not on 🤔 so I decided to continue with my post here.

    My last post was about Black Bethlehem fig but since then I found out that it is not Black Bethlehem here are the pipictures










    Anyway it's all good.

    I was moving fig trees in garage today, most of them are on wheeled pallets, a few are still outside, planning to roll them in tomorrow but still want to hose them down with full pressure on hose hand sprayer, do you do that ? Or are you using soap and oil solution to kill bugs that want to o er winter on trees ? I appreciate your input.

    Here are last figs of 2022








    Good thing I picked the day after alall leaves was frozen this morning.

    Best regards

    Hi Anna,

    thanks for posting pictures all fig plants have been in garage for a while now


    To answer your question i have never used anything on the fig plants to kill bugs as never seemed to have a bug problem.

    Other than some years back when plants were ripening the figs it was the year of the yellow jackets never saw them that bad i hosed the heck out of them and they fell to ground and then danced on them !

    I hose them off with hose pressure and let them dry before I move them in unheated

    garage, garage is well installed.

    I spray them with diluted Hydrogen peroxide or antibacterial detergent and oil solution or dust them with Diatomaceous earth powder I am scared of the fig bud mites.

    All my figs are in garage as of yesterday, in ground fig bushes covered today, I wrapped each shoot with burlap pink insulation waight them to the ground covered with tar paper and on to thick cardboard. I wanted to pail it up with mulch, but couldn't buy what I wanted.

    Martin it was nice to chat and share pictures with you.

    Thank you, enjoy winter and come back to visit here in spring.

    I wish you and your

    family the best of best a specially health and peaceful days a head
