    I found one bigger than a golf ball didn't know what it was, the guy I was working with had grew up right in the area and didn't know either, thought is was some kind of potato. Tossed it, it dawned on me later what is was. Right in town next to a busy sidewalk lined with woods.

    I just watched a bunch of your fig tasting videos. You do a great job at describing tastes and keeping videos concise, fun, and informative. I'm hoping to get first year fruits from my own Campaniere and Figoin so it was nice to see that you enjoyed yours. RdB is a stellar fig most years for me (western PA). It's my #1 overall fig (based on taste, productivity, and performance) so far among the 35 or so varieties I have. In lots of rain and humidity they aren't as great as they can split a lot but they can still ripen a bit afterwards and taste fairly good underripe. RLBV is a great fig as well. I hope that one improves for you this year. If you like cherry flavors in your figs then I highly recommend Hative d'Argenteuil. It's early/mid season ripening, uniquely tasty, and doesn't split in rainy or humid weather.

    Are you sure that was a main crop? The wood looks to be older wood. Main crop is only produced on new wood. Also, another observation that I made is, it’s very big for a main crop figoin. But would make sense if it’s actually a breba, as Brebas are bigger than main crop

    What if you wrapped the tower pots in tin foil? It would stop uv rays from deteriorating the plastic, deflect heat keeping the roots cooler, and maybe increase light to the greenery of the pot near it . Just a thought.

    I purchased a simple wood burning tool several years ago that I use for putting holes in all my plastic pots. You won't crack the plastic as you are just melting a hole through the pot. You need only purchase the tool not the entire kit and Amazon sells one for 12.99 which will last for years . Though I also have 3 Green Stock vertical planters I enjoy my dollar tree ones for herbs, strawberries and flowers like marigolds. I don't allow runners to develop on the strawberries and I put the planters in the garage for the winter in our zone 4 so I can water them lightly if the soil is drying out. We get a fair amount of wind at times but I have never had them blow over as I top with a nice size rock and only stack them three or four high. Also purchased an extra GS base so I can move them around easily on the deck and turn them daily to equalize the amount of sun they receive on all sides.

    • @FigletAndTheHound
      @FigletAndTheHound 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, forests that are predominantly 15-30 year old Doug fir are best in this area. When scouting new areas, we usually look for sites with very little undergrowth--a few ferns are fine, but thick undergrowth rarely is very productive for us. If we see red dirt in the area, that's usually a good sign. A lot of times you can see squirrel holes in the ground where they've dug for truffles.
