I enjoyed the couple dynamics. When he said “21 trees already planted… and we’re probably gonna plant another 7 or so next yr” and his wife starts shaking her head, I thought wait, that’s me and my wife 😂😂😂

That's funny

Looking forward to more videos!!

Wrapping it up! Nice. Doing the same here. So, you mentioned letting you know on cuttings (or maybe plants). Anyway, because of the "not sure" factor, Columbero Unk and Renate Unk interest me. Oddly, I don't have Ravin de Calce so it interests me too. What do you charge for cuttings and plants? Can trade as well. I've got a large selection rooting now with several repeat plants I can trade in a month or so. It'd be better to ask what you're looking for than to list them all I think. Let me know.

Following up on this comment. Will you take some cuttings to sell or trade?

[@darylmccready9164]

Hey I found your comments!! I will check today and see if I can get couple cuttings from the three you mentioned The two unknowns and the Ravin De Calce.

[@kellerf150]

I've been wanting to comment forever on your videos. You two are great.

[@darylmccready9164]

Thanks kellerf150 we have a lot fun making them

5,000 figs off of 2 Celeste figs trees? Just wow. I’m in Southern California, and I grafted a Del San Jaume Gran this spring. It actually was a vigorous grower and producer already, AND produces good figs even now in November. My fave at the moment. 😊

[@darylmccready9164]

yes they are very productive every year

[@darylmccready9164]

DSJG is a great fig for sure

[@C3Voyage]

Great. What zone are you? We just went to 8a last year from 7b. My potted plants are going in the ground this year and I'm going to be hopeful for their survival like you're doing so I'll be watching in the Spring for what happens at your place.

[@darylmccready9164]

I am in zone 7b. I don't plant this late. I wait for spring once past the threat of frost

[@darylmccready9164]

I store them in my shed over winter in the pots

[@C3Voyage]

@@darylmccready9164 Sorry, meant next year. It'll be in the Spring.

[@tarheel2u]

@@C3Voyage I'm in the same boat as you. We t to 8a in WNC. Slowly getting more figs in past year. Just now rooting sister Madaline green greek and CAMPANIERE.

Nice review. The best one's this season here in Denver Co for me was white Madeira #1, rdb, red Lebanese BV, Violetta de bordeaux. It was a great season.

[@darylmccready9164]

Yeah that White Madeira #1 is an excellent fig!! The rest are good too but WM#1 was so delicious

[@tracimccready1511]

It was a great season!

[@Mrdubby360]

Since you mentioned it, what method do you usevto root your cuttings? What zone are you located in? I'm in zone 6B. Is White Madeira a good one to grow in the ground in my zone?

[@darylmccready9164]

I have found that ProMix, in 32oz clear cups, moist but not wet, on Heat mat, in a room I keep at 70, with low light until they show green growth has given me the best results. I also prefer thicker cuttings. Once they show strong green growth I move them under grow lights. Then to my greenhouse or to a shaded area in my yard for a couple weeks. Then to full sun.

[@antaniperdue3148]

I got over 100 varieties, lots of work
