How are yours with splitting? We have a potted 2 year old? tree and got about 3 figs off of it this year, hoping to get it in ground and enjoy more in the future. They are very good!
6:33 Regarding the question "why attend events like FIg A Rama" - for me this was my first time attending, and I also attended the Frolic event in Chattanooga. I had some idea of what to expect from watching last year's videos, and my main purpose was to meet like-minded growers who share the same passion as me, and hopefully make some new friends (which I did). What an amazing community! The second reason was to share knowledge - both giving and receiving. Additionally, I wanted to see and learn about how an orchard is laid out - as I aspire to someday acquire a sizable farm to have my own orchard. The third reason (since I am fairly new to fig growing) was getting to taste different varieties - wow, the flavors! The bonus of course was getting to swap fig trees, and take home a few new varieties - very cool! The last part was a surprise bonus tour of a greenhouse to end the day. It was nice meeting you Matt, and thank you very much for capturing this entire event!
Wish I could have made it. Was going to try to go this year to learn some more things about dogs. Just started really getting into figs this year in the Upstate of SC
I wonder what kind of soy soap he used. I need to see what all it will control. I've planted 4 figs this year. Two turkeys, desert king and an unknown. Thanks for sharing.
This was a super experience. Thankful we could learn so much.
Appreciate the feedback! Glad you guys made it, looking forward to seeing how your project develops!
It was good to meet you Matt.
You too! Hope we can keep in touch as it’s good to have local friends who are knowledgeable.
We have a massive LSU Gold fig tree. It’s gotta be 12’ tall 20’ round South Mississippi.

Job well done. I missed the fig tour this year because I came late.
Always good to see you! Appreciate all you do for the local fig community.

Awesome feedback! I agree on every level. Hopefully I’ll have the swap/raffle and talk out this Sunday. Please reach out if you need anything.

It’s a good group. Enjoyed connecting and swapping some plants. Should have the video from another fig meetup edited and out in the next two weeks.

This week’s video (Part 2) will highlight the soy soap. They also discussed it last year. Several have had great results.
@@DeanFamilyAcres I'll be waiting for it. thanks again.
I can't quite make out what the host is saying about soap application and ambrosia beetle?
It will be highlighted more in depth in this week’s video. They also discussed it last year. It sounds like several are having good results.
