Late August 2024 Fig Hunting

[@3moirai]

Very cool! California is so lucky to have the wasp to produce all sorts of potential new varieties.

The fig hunting is life 🤩

Seriously love this video. I need to save it so when people ask me what I aspire to do, I can just show them. Heck yeah man rock on!! Those yellow with red insides are real cool. Looking forward to seeing what happens next season

[@figsandchocolate5553]

Thanks! I love the hunt.

[@amessnger]

Oh my goodness, that Tamarind Gold one looks and sounds amazing!

[@figsandchocolate5553]

It has such an incredible flavor! Caprified, of course. No idea if it’s common but I will definitely test it out

[@amessnger]

I know it's unlikely, but wouldn't that be wonderful. One could hand pollinate though...

[@evanborge494]

Im pretty sure you can grow the seeds of the ones you like since they are caprified and have a bunch of plants which will have a 25% chance of being a common fig that's similar to the parent tree.

[@figsandchocolate5553]

@@evanborge494 I believe that, unless it happens to be a persistent Caprifig, the odds are very low that it produces common offspring.

[@rickycervantes4926]

Are you able to ship some cuttings.

[@figsandchocolate5553]

@@rickycervantes4926 this was several months ago and I only took a few cuttings to try to grow them out and see if they’re common. I didn’t have much room to take many cuttings.

[@pangea1967]

CUTTINGS Please.

[@ChairmanObama]

All should be removed

[@figsandchocolate5553]

They may be removed someday but it’s unlikely for quite some time.
