    A friend of mine gave me cuttings from a fig tree at a community farm in Philadelphia. She didn't know what variety it was either. But the figs are coming in now and I'm trying to beat the birds and squirrels to them. Mine is in the ground and not in a pot. I don't have anywhere to put the figs for winter.

    @8:38 NOT wild GRAPES. POKEWEED! TOXIC!!! ...Although the early-spring greens are a nutritious and tasty traditional Southern delicacy. (I believe its called "poke salad".) BUT you MUST harvest them at the right stage and COOK CORRECTLY or its still poison. Also the berries have been used as a dye and supposedly can be used to treat arthritis (some people swallow a couple frozen berries a day ***WITHOUT CHEWING***) but the seeds inside are SO TOXIC its probably kinda dangerous...

    I had a fig tree grow from seed from a few years ago in the ground. Probably came from one of the figs that fell off and sprouted. Ironically it grew THROUGH the weed fabric. Now within 3 years the thing is taller than my house. Crazy how fast they grow in the ground! Also, the Chicago Hardy is a surprisingly tasty variety!

    Wow! Finally an excellent source of fig tree growing knowledge. I’ve been chicken to try to grow figs, but now I’m feeling more confident. What part of PA are you located? I’m in NE Ohio, just 1-1/2 hours from the PA border in Massillon, Ohio. I think I’m in zone 5 or 6 and have been concerned about growing figs successfully.

      @PAFigs Місяць тому

      If you search my channel, I did a video on making my mix. For the most part, figs are not picky. I like to use a mix of potting mix, pine bark, manure, and perlite for new trees. After root prooning, I primarily backfill with a blend of potting mix and manure.
