Thank you again very much! I appreciate you watching me and supporting my channel. I love to do fig content, and I'm glad to have more coming in the future. Thanks David ☺
Thanks for a timely and very informative video. It was great to have the three pots of figs at different growth stages. That made it easer to understand.
Thank you for your nice comment and for watching David, I really appreciate the support. Im glad the 3 stages of the potted figs gave a deeper insight into the growing cycles and stages of figs. 😊 Happy Gardening.
@@QualityGardener and, do you think that method also applies to potted mulberry? Because I have one, more than 2 years old about 7ft high that has a straight trunk and got few branches on top.
Thank you for watching! :) Yes you are correct. A majority of the breba is gone for this tree with this method, and I understand Desert King can be pruned differently especially for colder climates. I personally just take back all my potted fig trees like this, and focus on the maincrop (aka new growth). I have in inground figs that I forgot to prune, and they will be good breba for me, and even then I do not worry about those too much because the birds get them before me haha.
Hello, i was wondering when you open up the dirt around the fig tree with that tool do you ever accidentally pull some of the roots? My fig trees have many roots around the surface area so i get worried im hurting the tree.
Near the base of trunk, there will be larger roots naturally and I avoid those ones, so I just pulled the roots near the edge of the pot. Unfortunately its the only downside to this fertilizer method, but in my honest opinion, its fine to do to very small fibrous feeder roots, just don't tackle the larger ones. The tree that I did this to is now budding for spring so it won't harm the tree. All the best!
G'day mate , been very helpful 👍 your fig pruning and fertilising method I was too scared of pruning so I let it grow wild, if u are selling any cutting let me know I really want to get into growing figs
Thank you very much for your support! 😊 I am still in the midst of confirming a huge amount of varieties. I have some great ones already confirmed like i258, Negra D'Agdae and Izbat An Naj but many more left to confirm. Im considering making a video in the future to showcase varieties and how I can sell them locally around Australia.
Hi Mary, the other way is really good too. But I would say this way is a lot more efficient when you have a huge pot inventory like me. When you only have a small amount of fig trees, I would say the other method is all you need.
Thank you for this video. Fantastic to have 3 different year figs to show how the pruning changes over time. Love your work.

Thanks for that informative video. Don't you cut off the whole breba crop (for example Desert King) with your methode?

So what happens when it gets too tall? How much would you trim off?
@@FC2ESWS Hi, great question. Check out my last video about pruning videos in containers it's covered there.
I’ve been fertilising my potted figs the exact way you showed in an other video.
Is this way better?
