That looks like a pretty cool idea, Conor. Hopefully, it helps to stop them from drying out too much 🤞 It's great to see some main crop setting on your 'Genovese Nero AF' 👍
Thanks, there is a "UK Fig growers" Facebook group, where people swap and sell cuttings in the Winter, which you then root. So most of these were cuttings from there, which I rooted in late winter in my bedroom.
That terracotta insert looks like a great idea 👍

Thanks Peter. Yeah hopefully I'll get some maincrop in the Autumn 🤞🌿
I put tons of woodchips on top, it makes a huge difference and they don't dry out nearly as quickly
Yeah I will do once more established, but atm the woodchips can hide the slugs which are eating the leaves and stems! 🙌🌿
@@hopeitgrows2892 Yeah they have been destroying my vegetables.
Nice collection. Where do you get your fig plants from
