I live on the border of USDA zone 6 and 7. The winters here have been bipolar. One year we had 80 degree days almost every day in October and November, while the year before I don't recall it ever getting above 32 F in October and November. Therefore, never sure how cold it will be and I would hate risk loosing one of my babies to the cold!

Since i am growing cuttings to be planted as trees in the ground here in 7b, i leave the buds below ground in case the tree dies back to the ground the first winter. I am thinking if they have to resprout they may find the dormant buds useful. I do snack sized ziploc bags for figpops so i can place a lot of them on a heat mat.i do use a bamboo skewer to poke air holes. If i need to add water, i snip off the bottom corners and set them in a little water not too long and not too much. After they fill the pop with roots, i gently uppot into the quart containers after they no longer need bottom heat. Ziplocks are easy to open, and a sharp knife helps to cut the seams. At this point, i add mychoriza. I go from the quarts directly into the ground later on but i can always monitor the roots through the clear contIners during the initial process. I love cutting season and the whole process. My advice to your students is keep the bottoms warm, say 78, and the tops cool, say 40 to 50 and dark. You want roots before foliage.

It's really dependent on it's environment. I have mine in a 15 gallon pot and my tree is about 6 feet tall. That however, is because I pinched at 6 feet! I suspect in ground the tree can probably get to 15 to 20 feet.

How are you calculating "productivity"? # of ripe figs divided by age or gallon pot?

@the1figman120 2 жыл бұрын
I tried to be consistent with previous evaluators' methods for users to be able to compare regions with the same stats. I used the method that Ben B. from Seattle used: Productivity: "Productivity will be calculated by how many figs divided by how many branches. So the result will be a number that shows the average amount of figs per branch."

Hi Mike, I was wondering, Do you use any heating pads during initial rooting and then after placing under lights? My growing room is around 55 to 60 degrees. Thanks for the vids.
@the1figman120
@the1figman120 3 жыл бұрын
Every year I tweak my method comparing with last year's results, looking to approve my process. I initially keep the base of my cuttings on a heating pad around 80°F. The pads are under a board with 3 mil to 5 mill plastic. Then I have a grate under that which keeps the pots about 1/4" to 1/2" above the floor. So I suspect the bottom of the cuttings are a little cooler than 80°F. When I begin to see roots, I begin to back down the temps, and try to keep the roots between 70°F to 74°F.

Just wondering. Is that all you use to fertilize your figs? I see other people have a list of products. Ex..azomite, ironite, lime, gypsum... Are they really necessary in your opinion? Your process is so much simpler.
@the1figman120
@the1figman120 3 жыл бұрын
It changes every year a bit, to constantly tweak and get optimal growth. I find using a calcium additive that can be immediately taken up by the roots to be very beneficial. I'm guessing the gypsum, azomite, and lime provide that (in addition to changing the pH and other additives). Ultimately, I think you need to determine your goals. If you are growing a fig that often splits, maybe add more calcium. If you have a tree heavy in FMV, try more Nitrogen. In my case, I'm looking to provide support to the masses opposed to specific trees.

So I should add side holes to my 32 0z cups with fine fir bark medium for rooting cuttings? By the way, thanks for the very nice cuttings of I-258 and Texas Blue Giant from the recent FigBid auction! How do I give you credit via FigBid for the high quality and prompt delivery of those cuttings?
@the1figman120
@the1figman120 4 жыл бұрын
@charles wilder Thank you so much for the great feedback. As for holes, I would not recommend holes if using fine fir bark, until a decent amount of roots are formed. This will help keep the humidity up for the rooting. However, once you have nice roots, I strongly recommend adding holes to increase the air flow. The roots will benefit from the oxygen. Additionally, the exposure to the excess humidly over the long term will promote root rot. The fresh air will help prevent that.

How many days does it take to ripen? Is it a early fig? I’m currently growing a red Sicilian.
@the1figman120
@the1figman120 4 жыл бұрын
@vito fall The ripening time is directly related to the the length of your summers or the ability to raise the temperatures. I'm on the border of zone 6 and 7. When I took this video, we had an abnormally early Spring. I began getting figs off this tree around mid September. This past year (2020), my trees began breaking bud in my basement (kzbin.info/www/bejne/rHPHY4WXm8mNo7M) early. I tried to hold out as long as possible before bringing my trees out. However, the trees began to get long and lanky. So I took my trees out end of March. It was beautiful Spring. The day after I brought my trees out, we had an unexpected cold snap with hail. Many of my trees had die back of the new shoots. Therefore, I had a very late start 2020. I did not get figs on my tree until late October in 2020 (about 6 weeks later than the previous year!) I hope this helps!
