Fig - Brown Turkey (Seedling) ^7/10

Water Given in: Spring

Fig White Adriatic (Cutting) ^10/10

Comments: -

Purchased May last year from Diggers and arrived in a bad way. Started picking up in spring but it really accelerated growth in December as this variety loves hot weather. I pinched the terminal buds to change it from a single stem to a dual branched tree and in the process stimulated it to produce 3 figs. 1 fell off but the other 2 have gotten quite big. Its growing in a 300mm pot and i will update once the figs ripen on its taste and growth habit.

Update: 
Pinching the growth tips encourages branching and produces a lot of fruit on this variety. The fruit is quite sweet and large about 90-100g. Highly recommended

I will change to the Dynamic lifter fertilizer higher in potash when its starts to fruit.

Fig Deanna (Cutting) ^9/10

Comments: - There were only two fig types at bunnings, brown turkey and black genoa and wanted a bit more variety. I purchased this 2 year old bare-root fig tree from an online eBay nursery. Its supposed to have light greenish-yellow flesh and a tasty pulp. Its currently growing in a cut 200L drum. The cut drum is self watering and promotes healthier root system through air pruining. The fig has just started to produce some foilage. Potting mix is the same as my other figs. 1:1:1 coconut coir, potting mix and compost mixed in with dynamic lifter.

Fig Black Genoa

Fig Black Genoa (Cutting) ^9/10

Comments: - Just like my Brown turkey fig, this was also purchased from bunnings. It was badly affected by rust in late autumn due to wet and humid weather. It has come back with great vigour and was the first to break dormancy out of all my figs. Potting mix is the same as the brown turkey. I can't wait for it to start bearing.
