Hey Ross awesome video sooo much information had to watch twice 👍🏻
EXCELLENT video. Thanks for the hard work. I'll look for your Fig sale and of course obsess over the great Fig info.
i liked the excel sheet you used to display on your previous videos
40 minutes went by quickly, this was an immersive video. Ross, great video, thank you.
Nice informative content. Thanks
The best fig tree variety is the one that it's already an adult tree in your backyard 😁
Strong work FB!
I also used to be a member of the old community figs4fun. That's where I got all my varieties. I used to go by the name Figs4Life.
Any old timer remember me?
Thanks for sharing.
Holy crap!!! You don’t think Peter’s honey is a tasty fig? I absolutely love mine and I have about three other honey figs on my yard. I’m in Maryland so we basically have the same weather for it.
Hahaha, you sound like my late Grandfather.
@@RossRaddiI remember you saying in a video that your grandfather loved a low tier fig and he suggested you mark up the price of it. Oh and you forgot to mention Col De Dame Rimada when you mentioned the Col De Dame’s.
@@thegooch7206 I’m in Maryland too, and it’s my first year growing figs which honey variety grow best for you?
I wish the growing season is longer in my area. A lot of fig varieties won’t even have a chance to ripen on the tree.
Youz da bomb Ross 😎
It would have been nice to have a list that one could copy , what good is the information if there's no way to get them ?

LOL I disagree that the average person would have no problem finding some of these! Had to get on a waiting list for Black Madeira. Never even heard of the Argentile one before this.
I would like to see a list of the best figs which are also easy to find for the newbie.
My CdD Gris has been drastically more vigorous and more winter hardy that my three Blanc trees.
“Gateway fig”. Lol. Yes it’s addictive
Hi Ross ur vidros sre very informative could u guide me a hone green fig vsriety name of turkey redidh amber interior snd slghtly yrllowish green apart from calling those symerns or calymerna
@RossRaddi Hi Ross! 2 questions: You talk about the prosciutto variety. Is this the same as that known as unk prosciutto? And several people including Evan Durtchi (SP?) have suggested Calderona and Bass's Favorite Fig are indistinguishable, or maybe the same. Your thoughts??
Yeah. The unk is rarely a necessary part of the name.
I haven't compared them yet.
How do you compare “Black Celeste” to “Black Madeira” ?
Do I have to up pot my plants from 1 gallon to 5 then 10 or can I go straight to the 15 gallon from the 1 gallon.
If it's well rooted, you can.
You also want a well draining soil. Don't overwater it.
Hi Ross this is my first year growing figs I’m learning a lot from you I’m in zone 6a I stored my in containers fig in my basement but yesterday I found out they woke up what can I do now there in the dark thank you
Put it/them outside at night just as long as it doesn’t drop below 32 degrees and as long as it’s lignified let a soft frost hit it a couple times. This always works for me.
Do you have a garage? Mine isn’t well insulated (in zone 6a) and I haven’t had any issues with the trees being damaged by the cold.
@@youngbuck5009 I have a garage but the garage door doesn’t close and they sprouted now do you think it is ok to move them to the garage with the door open thank you
@@thegooch7206 my mistake was I put them in the basement before they completely dormant my mistake the are awake now we are still in the beginning of winter I don’t know what to do thank you
@@lindaberri593if the garage is attached to the home, put it on a wall that borders the interior. Also, some combination of tarps/blankets is beneficial to contain some heat and keep the wind off of them.
I'm looking for a fig tree to buy how much for a small I live in the state of Florida
Check your Lowes now. They are selling figs.
You know where is the best island 🏝 of Portugal 🇵🇹 ? The figs in world are here Porto santo island 🏝 PORTUGAL ♥ 🇵🇹

Talk too much with no photos.
He’s a talker, not a photographer 😂
No, he's asking for someone to talk to much without photography.
