Comparing Fig Varieties (Part Two) After Heavy Rains!

[@geraldinebusch]

Can't get enough about the different cultivars of Celeste Trees, Some fig catalogs lead you to believe they are so common and un-interesting that they tend to push other brands, so thanks for the truth about how great the different types of Celestes are!! Your Fig Cuttings look so great! Congrats on their continued success!! Take care til next time!

Hi Lou, if you’re are having problems with nematodes in the one spot, may I suggest a method that seems to work best. When you decide to put a tree in the ground, dig out a very large hole , large enough to hold 8 bags of compost to plant your fig tree in. You will see no problem with nematodes. Every year you will need to top dress the tree with 2 or 3 bags in the spring. You will see this works. I did this with a friends tree that lives in New Jersey near the shore. After a couple years having problems with other trees, he dug up all of his trees removed the dirt and used neem oil to treat for nematodes and then replanted them in compost and hasn’t had any issues since. That was about 13 years ago. Just a suggestion, for what it’s worth 😊

I'm sure all the figgies watching you right now would love Debbie to post a copy of the recipe for the figgy bread.

Love the videos. Are bird nets still effective without tying the bottom closed?

What happened to your trees in the greenhouse?

[@Sara-od2li]

Are you recording with something different or uploading with something different? Because I used to be able to watch your videos in my KZbin app on my TV but now it's just a black screen. I am able to still watch it on my tablet

[@loumonti10]

@Sara-od2li I really don't understand what you're having difficulty with. I am able to view my videos on KZbin on my tv. If anyone else is having a problem, please comment. Thank you! Lou Monti

[@Sara-od2li]

@loumonti10 that's strange, maybe it's because I need to update my TV or something but the other videos are playing so I don't know. Thanks for responding

[@dandelaney5733]

Can you do a video and compare your two celeste trees? What makes them unique against each other?

[@loumonti10]

@dandelaney5733 Hi there! I have 8 inground Celeste trees. The differences are explained in my videos many times. Some are different from others. Thanks for watching. Lou Monti

Hey Lou - sorry I am replying to content from a different video, but I cant find the other one right now. It was recent. I dont know the best way to contact you, so I will try right here. You mentioned you love your LSU tiger. Do you like it more than regular Tiger Panache? I got very lucky in the supermarket yesterday and after touching 10 lbs of figs, I was able to walk away with 4 amazing pounds of ripe figs. Never happened before. Usually it is 1 out of 10 or 15. But the tiger panache (I believe it was) was SOO GOOD. I never had a ripened tiger. So please tell me if LSU tiger is better. Also, what's that celeste tree you LOVE LOVE. I know you love them all, but which is the variety you keep saying you love above the rest? And how do I buy it? Can I purchase from you directly? I'll pay whatever you want Thanks as always.
