Holy buckets! They’re like pumpkins! I particularly like some light-colored figs. “White Genoa” is my favorite. Greenish yellow skin and a pink interior. Very fresh, almost tart taste. For a four-month old tree that tree is going to be an incredible producer. Plus they pass the Dale test!
I imagine this fig would be much better caprified. Harvey's Robert's Golden Rainbow looks superior to mine from the pollination. If you like the light figs, you'd probably enjoy this. There is no complexity in the flavor at all. No berry tones, no "figgy"flavor...it just tastes like honey. Which isn't a bad thing. If you love honey, this fig is very "clean" tasting.
Ross Raddi did a comparison of YLN and Golden Rainbow, and they came out to be basically the same. I think that Golden Rainbow is probably damn near identical after researching around a lot. Some people even say its better. The one that is a bit more different would be Long Yellow, which is different from YLN but supposedly still quite alright. I just saved myself some cash and time and got a beautiful YLN plant from Restoring Eden nursery.
Some people say Yellow Long Neck is the same fig as Robert's Golden Rainbow. Some say they are different. No one can definitively say they are the same. However, they are similar enough that if you have one, you don't need to get the other. If you have Yellow Long Neck and are happy with it, I wouldn't get this variety because it'll be fairly redundant.
I was quite surprised at how good and large it was. The ones I had on my tree were easily twice the size you had and delicious. Can't wait for the rest to ripen!!
Oh, they will be much larger next year, I guarantee it! The fact that they're already producing 60-100g figs in a 5 gallon bucket after 5 months of growth is a goooooood sign!
My friend if you were in Greece and could find the fig trees VASILIKA BLACK, and VASILIKA WHITE, you eat them you would go crazy. You can not describe the taste, you find it in the little village of Taxiarchis Evia Greece. I will fly to Athens in Greece and travel to that place to get some branches and do what you do and plant them in the garden…
Happy to see you got your hands on a RGR. I just got an already rooted one in the spring and Should have my first few ripe ones in the next week or so. Glad you showed a comparison of what they looked like at different stages. I wasn't sure how ripe I should let it go before I harvest. They are quite large but still feel fairly firm. I'll be posting my September Fig update this week.
Glad to hear you got one. It's an extremely large fig, so it feels a little different than the smaller figs, probably because the skin is much thicker overall. They start to get smaller when they ripen, because the water content decreases. Most figs lose weight as they become ripe.
Luckily, we still have about 30 more days of good fig-growing temps, here. Hopefully, yesterday was the last rain day for awhile. Crossing our fingers for no more storms!
Figs are a acquired taste!! My Grandmother Babe Fowler had a large fig tree in our yard as a child!! She made gifts for Christmas and if you didn’t know it You would think it was strawberry jam!! Just delicious!! Great job for 4 mts. Thx for the video!!
I would argue that figs have more varieties in flavor and texture than almost any fruit on earth. I can give you 20 different figs that taste absolutely nothing alike, so you can dislike many figs while loving many others. This is why I enjoy growing them in containers - so I can verify I enjoy them before I plant them in-ground. I only plant my favorites.
@ 4:47 I noticed the first one he ate was moving. It definitely had bugs you have to watch on your flatscreen TV to see what I mean. I know it won’t do anything to him. Obviously I just noticed that and screeamed lol😂
yeah I noticed the same thing and on my monitor. I guess the eye was open and overripe so it was probably a fruit fly 😋I wonder how did they fly get past that bag?
It could be that you placed that tree next to the wall. I heard that it helps the tree grow better, as it creates a better microclimate to help provide more sun if planted next to a south facing wall.
I only did that because it rained the day before, and I didn't want the rain to ruin the very large figs, because I wanted to film this video. I had to protect the tree under the soffit. It's back outside in the yard.
I just traded a larger Italian 258 fig for a Golden Rainbow, Yellow Longneck, a white Madeira, and another fig I need to verify is an actual cultivar. I only wanted one of them but he gave them all to me. Lol I cannot wait. Is the Golden Rainbow good for rainy areas??!
Where’s a good source to purchase a Robert's Golden Rainbow? Are these good for sir drying or too large? This is a whole new world to me , I thought brown turkey, mission and Celeste was it🤦♂️ Thanks for all your videos. Really appreciated.
What do you know about the Deanna fig? I grow in in SF Bay Area and it makes honey figs the size of tennis balls as long as the tree is watered regularly. It looks like the yellow long neck. I never hear anything about this variety. We really like for all the same reasons you like this one.
I am not familiar with the fig personally, but here are two resources that should help: www.figdatabase.com/variety-details/118/deanna figvarieties.com/fig_varieties/deanna/
Would you please make a video about dwarf fig trees variety. I have tiny backyard but I wish to have more than one fig tree, and I have buy any yet as I am waiting to see which ones to be dwarf. Thanks
All the figs you produce in your garden for ten years are produced by a single fig tree in the Mediterranean region. Figs are 125 grams plus. This is for videos and likes etc.
Many varieties of figs can produce a large fig here and there on a rare occasion. For a variety that consistently produces large figs, that's a lot harder to do. Robert's Golden Rainbow is definitely one of the largest varieties out there, though. If you want large figs, this is one of your best bets. Other good, "high quality" figs that tend to be larger are Coll de Dama Gegantina, Col de Dame Mutante and I-258. Those varieties will routinely produce 60+gram fruits, but even the "largest figs" will set some smaller figs here and there. My new Grigio fig tree is setting some pretty good-sized figs, too.
Awesome! Were these pollinated? Also, just curious, since you’ve mentioned it before, do you know actual regions in cal that have naturalized fig wasp and have pollinated figs?
No, they were not. They're just a standard, unpollinated, common fig. The fig wasp varies from place to place. Even if you're in a region that is known to have the wasp, you likely will not colonize it, because a wasp can only extend its range around 100 yards from a colonized caprifig. They're the size of gnats and can barely fly. Places that are known to colonize the wasp are the San Jaoquin River Valley, Sacramento River Valley, parts of San Diego, Riverside, and that Modesto/Visalia area in the center of the state that I know of off the top of my head, but I'm not a California geography expert by far.
At 00:51, do you mean it took a full year for your cuttings of this variety to root ? Does it mean we must wait up to 1 year when our fig cuttings show no sign of life ?
No. My WM#1 has never split. The eye seems to be more open for me when it's wet, but it's been a pretty split-resistant fig. Black Madeira on the other hand is like a hand grenade! I'm very happy with WM#1, and it's one of my best figs in terms of taste, fruit set, and performance.
Hi, loves the video.. I love the dark figs like you too however I do like melon flavoured things and you said that honey figs have a melon like flavour.. in your opinion what would be the most melon-tasting fig you’ve had?
I don't grow many honey figs, because I generally do not enjoy them and therefore probably am not the best source for that question. The most melon-y fig I've ever tasted is probably the California Brown Turkey, which is actually a purple fig. That fig, to me, tastes bad. It's the only fig I do not like. I think it tastes like a watermelon rind with a small amount of brown sugar on it. After that, probably Lattarula, which I culled because it couldn't handle my climate and every fig would rot. I'm not saying there is anything bad with melon-tasting figs. They just aren't my personal taste preference.
Dear friend, I think U need a little help from Cyprus. I was climbing on my fathers fig trees to collect the figs 60 years ago. I have a few fig trees on a piece of land which I didn't water, prune or collect the figs for years. But they are there. I will look after them soon, again. The most ripe one because it's open in the air and the flies can do a bad job there, we cut the 1/4 cylindrical and through it away, if we don't through away all of it. As someone can see on a large monitor there is something moving within the bottom of the fruit. If U look very close U might see what is moving. To some people that affects their stomach. If we are not sure, we smell it and if there is NOT a sour smell we might eat it. Similar with second fig from which we cut away the 1/6 of it. From the third one we cut very little, just the bottom part, where U inject them, Dr. Last information. The biggest enemy of the Figs is Water. The tree HATES the rain. Water enters the ones they start to ripe and destroys them. Why? The water mixes with the honey of the fruit. Affects partly the green ones as well if the rain consists. Milk and water is a bad combination. The tree gets the message that a winter is coming and fastens up the procedure to ripe them ALL before the winter stops the juices-milk moving. As I see your trees are at controllable size so you can cover them up with a nylon. Subscribed
Have you done a review on Craven's Craving? Its supposed to be an absolutely monstrous fig (100g), which in most respects is supposed to act like Black Madeira.
Looking awesome there, and how tall are you (fig looked to be about an inch or so taller than you there). Just WOW! Looks ginormous! Got me green with envy here… it’s been very humid here and we got a little rain today too, but then the sun came out and it’s a lava pit outside 😭 Dale is his usual fruit loving self there. Awesome vid.
I'm 5'-6", so it is probably sitting around 5'-8" or so. It's a total beast. It's not the most flavorful fig by a long shot, but for a novelty huge fig with good taste, it's a winner. It's probably great for making jam or jelly.
@@TheMillennialGardener I kinda like the melon flavors or any fruit flavors tbh. 😆 Showed my mom the video and my mom was: Wow!!! And I told her I asked about the price so I can start saving up to buy a small tree from you and she nods and smiled at me (it means mom says: go for it.)
A big thumbs up on your channel, great content. Do you have any cuttings of that fig that you will sell? I've come to dislike buying from big box stores as I've received bad trees and other than the advertised name. So I dare ask do you have any cuttings to sell?
Thank you, I appreciate that very much. Yes, I am currently in the process of offering many cuttings. I have a video on how to go about it here: czcams.com/video/EV2HIv1sXPI/video.html I am still in the process of listing, so make sure to check back to my sales page regularly as I add more and more.
Need your help. I watched one of your videos,and made a list to buy. I am in Sebastian florida. I cannot find, itialian 258, Smith, Doris Dark, Violette de Bordeaux. Our nurseries down here , to say the least Suck, for selling Figs. Can you tell me where you get your fig trees supplier from. Thanks
Sometimes, SWD gets into figs. I bag them, but sometimes they get in before I get the bags on. If you’ve ever eaten figs, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, etc., you’ve eaten SWD larvae before 😂 Kind of gross, but it is harmless.
bro i bought a fig plant from nursery yesterday.....i dont know its exact variety...u said u have 40 varieties in ur home......i want to share mine ones photo with u such that u identify it but is there any method to share photo in youtube to u
You can host the photo on an image hosting website like Imgur (just Google search "free image hosting") and post the link to the image in a comment. However, it's really impossible to identify a fig by looking at it. There are tens of thousands of varieties, and many are very similar, so if the variety isn't tagged, there isn't a way to know what it is 100%.
I offer cuttings during the dormant season, which is *usually* January. If you subscribe to the channel, I always notify all my subscribers when the time comes.
Cutting season won't be for another 4 months in my neck of the woods. Cuttings are not taken until trees go dormant, so we still have quite a ways to go. I offer cuttings in January, and I always make an official announcement to my subscribers when the time comes.
My first YLN were about the same size, amazing flavor when they were fully ripe. Did you gave 184-15 another season? mine ripened a fruit out of the fig wasp area, but they are hard to fruit. Im hoping to get muchbetter fruit from both YLN and 184-15 this year cause I will put them on ground
My Strawberry Teardrop dropped all but 1 or 2 fruits, and the 1 or 2 fruits that persisted were pretty bland and looked funny, almost like a ripe caprifig. I'm not convinced it is a common fig.
I offer cuttings in the dormant season, usually in January. I always announce to my subscribers formally when I offer them. In the meantime, sometimes there is a plant on Figbid.
There was some SWD larvae in the bottom of one. Sometimes, it happens with figs, as well as blackberries, raspberries, blueberries, etc. They can be pretty hard to see, but they're harmless.
This fig was on a 6 month old tree. 6 months ago, it was just a cutting. That is incredible. You cannot compare a 6 month old tree in a 5 gallon paint bucket to an older tree in-ground or in larger containers. Figs yield larger fruit as they age.
It's SWD larvae. I noticed that when editing. Often, they're too tiny to see with the naked eye, but the zoom lens can pick up the motion. This is why I bag them, but sometimes the SWD lays the eggs early. Usually, the figs will spoil when this happens, but every now and again you catch them early. A little protein never hurt anyone.
Holy buckets! They’re like pumpkins! I particularly like some light-colored figs. “White Genoa” is my favorite. Greenish yellow skin and a pink interior. Very fresh, almost tart taste. For a four-month old tree that tree is going to be an incredible producer. Plus they pass the Dale test!

Wonderful, nice to have a selection. Thank you.
Thank you! I appreciate you watching!

Thank you! I really appreciate that.
My 1st year LSU Gold fig is doing great. It ripens as a light gold color, very large and sweet. I still prefer the Celeste and Chicago Hardy.
Beautiful! Four month old tree and showing out with the fruit. ✌
That's my favorite thing about figs - they fruit so early when given enough fertilizer and sun!
Dale looks great! beautiful eyes.
He's so good looking. I wish I was half as handsome as he is!
YEAH!

I have a golden orphan fig that grows fruits heavier than 200 grams. YLN is slightly smaller but IMO of better taste.
I just traded a larger Italian 258 fig for a Golden Rainbow, Yellow Longneck, a white Madeira, and another fig I need to verify is an actual cultivar. I only wanted one of them but he gave them all to me. Lol
I cannot wait.
Is the Golden Rainbow good for rainy areas??!
These would make great fig syrups.
I agree. Because they're so large, it is probably good for jams, jellies, sauces and syrups.
❤❤❤
I have this variety and YLN and mixed the fruit from both of them and I couldn’t tell them apart, they are the same fig.

Cutting season won't be for another 4 months in my neck of the woods. Cuttings are not taken until trees go dormant, so we still have quite a ways to go. I offer cuttings in January, and I always make an official announcement to my subscribers when the time comes.
@@TheMillennialGardener that got me curious on the price so I can start saving up 😂
@@TheMillennialGardener How much you ask for the cutting?
They'll go up for auction on FigBid.
@@BlackJesus8463 most things that goes on there ended up being over my head to handle
so which variety is this?
The variety name is discussed many times in the video as well as all throughout the video description.
What kind of variety?
This is Robert’s Golden Rainbow and is shown and discussed in the video.
Could it be a Petershoney?
No. That is a significantly smaller fig. This is definitely a Robert's Golden Rainbow.
i need cutting this fig so please anyone give me
Are u going to sell any cuttings of this fig
I will have limited cuttings come January. Because it is a first year tree, I won't get lots of cuttings, but I'll share what I have.
Hi dear Can I get a cuttings out of these fig ?
I offer cuttings during winter, but the season is over. I will have cuttings available again in January.
My first YLN were about the same size, amazing flavor when they were fully ripe. Did you gave 184-15 another season? mine ripened a fruit out of the fig wasp area, but they are hard to fruit. Im hoping to get muchbetter fruit from both YLN and 184-15 this year cause I will put them on ground
My Strawberry Teardrop dropped all but 1 or 2 fruits, and the 1 or 2 fruits that persisted were pretty bland and looked funny, almost like a ripe caprifig. I'm not convinced it is a common fig.
These are not big fig. Big figs are from 150 to 250 g. i think you should look and search for bigger figs. Thanks
You should consider that this is a 6 month old tree in a Home Depot bucket.
We’re can I get a cutting
I offer cuttings in the dormant season, usually in January. I always announce to my subscribers formally when I offer them. In the meantime, sometimes there is a plant on Figbid.
Where did u get the fig tree?
The cutting was from a local guy that lives about 20 mins from me.
Did the ripest one have juice glistening cause it looked like some kind of movement at the bottom?
There was some SWD larvae in the bottom of one. Sometimes, it happens with figs, as well as blackberries, raspberries, blueberries, etc. They can be pretty hard to see, but they're harmless.
not very big ... i have a few varieties of 200 + gram figs
This fig was on a 6 month old tree. 6 months ago, it was just a cutting. That is incredible. You cannot compare a 6 month old tree in a 5 gallon paint bucket to an older tree in-ground or in larger containers. Figs yield larger fruit as they age.

Why is that one fig moving? I think you ate maggots man
It's SWD larvae. I noticed that when editing. Often, they're too tiny to see with the naked eye, but the zoom lens can pick up the motion. This is why I bag them, but sometimes the SWD lays the eggs early. Usually, the figs will spoil when this happens, but every now and again you catch them early. A little protein never hurt anyone.
