- Training fig trees in the Japanese style way.
Better production in fruits looks pleasant.
As you can see it looks really nice and easy to maintain once a year.

Fig trees are so awesome, i like the way you prune branches. Remember Me? I am the one who grew avocado trees, but now I'm growing date palms(didn't expect they boom up in my avocado plant pot. got outcompeted but hey at least the two dates are different in genders!) dates are also awesome, comparable to figs in sweetness.
The discussion about the nematodes for me was the highlight of this video . I came to watch because of the Japanese pruning
I love this style of pruning! Thanks for showing.
You are welcome
nice cutting and shaping there ~
Just pruned and renovated my avocado tree, and nice pruning technique
Very informative just subscribed great work.
Love 💕 thank you. Subbed.
Thank you 🌱
Good pruning, I also planted fig trees in Indonesia
Very good!! How are they doing??
Super! 👍
Hell yes. Figs do so well with a heavy pruning. When you get spur ontop of spur ontop of spur in grapes it's called castling, as the stubs get higher and higher like a castle, I wonder if it's the same with figs? Actually I'm going to go munch a few figs now before the black birds beat me to it. Go figs!
The training with grapes is that. With figs haven’t hear it referred to figs in training.
Like how the grape vines in castling look like.
Eat them up!
Very cool video my friend big 👍
Thanks friend
👏👏👏👏👏
Could you do an update vid to these beautiful trees once they produce fig plz
I have a video that I’m putting together hopefully soon to upload.
What happens when you will leave more vertical shoots?
If you were growing cutting for sell, this looks like the best way to grow the tree
My comment is reaction to your narrative at the 7 minute mark were you say "if cuttings were your crop you would want a different style of pruning.s
👍👍👍
Interesting. Thanks.
You are welcome
Maybe I can learn from your pruning techniques
Thank you for sharing the video! I wonder how you keep the squirrels away from your fig fruits.
Could put net over tree when fruit is getting close. The squirrels love the fruit. Can put fake predatory bird. They sale on Amazon.
You are welcome glad to help you.
Thankh you very much

What location is this video generally? I'm concerned about die-back from freeze damage here in Central Arkansas. I'd prefer to grow figs in the ground vs containers.
This is over near Tallahassee Florida
John was tell me about his grandpa would grow the figs up as they were still slender easy to pull down. He would lay it on the ground and put pine straw all over it. When spring would come it would make new shoot have fruit in it. He would cut it back or repeat the process. Most of figs are tip fruiting meaning fruits on new growth.
Trying to grow them on the south side of the house or in greenhouses might help.
How cold are the winters where you live? Do you need to protect the trees from freezing?
Our winters are not terrible This area may reach in the upper 20s,
Where I’m located I can get under 20°. They make it out well. If you are in a cold climate you could grow up by the south side of the house.
You could grow it real low to the ground. Grow Figs that bear fruit on new growth.
Will you please make a video explaining the nematode strategy you mentioned? Figs are one of my favorite fruits, but I’ve given up on gigs due to nematodes being so prolific in my area, so I wonder if what you were talking about could help me. Thanks!
See what I can do, I do have example on a papaya trees roots.
There is a tropical relative were they graft with and you have to protect it with Mulch. Other option is putting organic matter down all the time. Crab Meal and shrimp meal helps kill them. It has ( chitin ) it keeps them builds a high population of good organisms to control nematodes.
I thought some lsu varieties were resistant to nematodes.
Very nice video. Hope you c a n post an update to the pruning results
I’ll see about trying to post one soon. Thank you 🙏
I have a question. I live in the UK zone 9, the fig tree is growing the next year fruit now before winter, in March-April when it is supposed to be the right pruning time, the fruit is in the middle of its ripening process. You said that you are pruning every year. For me it means I never harvest. What would be the solution? Thanks
Good afternoon, I talked with John he told me you’re going to have to either skip a year on pruning back or protect it during the winter building structure around it to block the wind and keep warmer.
Now you could also at the same time use non-LED Christmas lights it will make it 10° warmer if you can keep the wind out. Use the white bulbs, But it sounds like you need a greenhouse structure to definitely get your production on figs. Have the fruits sooner before you prune.
Can do both in time see what works best for you.
Where is your fig tree growing out at in yard?
How would you have pruned differently to produce both summer and early season fruit (breba) on this training system?
The Japanese style pruning cuts off the spring growth. You will only get summer fruits. Other option every other year do the pruning after you have it a set look. Usually when you have the spring fruits they don’t usually stay on an taste Acidic.
With some type of fig varieties you are growing produce year round. Plus what environment you are growing in. The same variety grown in one part of the world can have bigger fruits than the other growing another growing habitat with small fruits.
I know brown turkey fig makes breba. Some of my figs I just grow out let them make their own shape and some I prune. Hopefully I was able to help.
It might be easy for you'll to grow cutting . But not me and I have followed the instructions from many channels . For the price I spent on cutting i could of bought 6 one hundred dollar trees
9:40 you'll are taking about fertilizer. You say you dont fertilizer. I know a vineyard manager in the Shenandoah valley znd says "we only use composted leaves from a town leaf collecting facility" . I was shocked to hear that's all they use
Yikes!!! You cut all the branches off!
Yanlış yerden kesim yapıyorsun. İkinci boğumdan ve tam gözlerin üzerinden. Eğer verim almak istiyorsanız
