100 Days Later…Fig Cutting Roots!

This fig tree is a rooted cutting from my I-258 fig tree. I-258 produces large, syrupy figs, and I-258 fig trees are extremely vigorous. #figtree #figtrees #figcuttings #propagation #figs

I just planted two new fig trees a couple of weeks ago. I actually tried fresh figs for the first time a couple of weeks ago and I went right to buying two new trees.

I just received some cuttings. Wish you had a fig cutting give away. I love different varieties of figs. I use perlite and vermiculite. I took the cuttings put rooting hormone powder and cut drainage holes in the cup. Then placed a second cup to hold the water n drink as they want. I have a deep clear tote and it sits closed to give lots of humidity to the figs. It is in my screen room and sun twice a day. Sun is strong in SC. Within 1 week I got almost all to grow leaves. One is growing a fig? Should I cut it off? Not growing from top- side of cutting. Then I have old yeller and they don’t seem to be growing. I am leaving them to see if they root with no leaves. Is there anything I should be doing? Your advice is amazing

Contrary to popular belief cool temperatures are preferable to grow roots from a cutting than warmer

I brought in a sweet potato plant for the winter to see if i could save it. I thought it died. I made sure it had some sun. Now its growing leaves like crazy. I wont have to buy another one. Same thung with my peacan trees that the squirrels planted in my front yard. I have 5 seedlings now!!!

Good things come to those who wait! What is better than a fig?

[DaBuDaSak]

Was it moist the whole time or did the top dry out some? Surprised it didn't rot like some of your previous cuttings

[Zaysto]

So do you need sun for then to root? I’ve seen people use the fig pop method.

I have a cutting that looks exactly at the same stages and im not sure if it has roots or not. Its been chillin for like 3 months now

Question- I live in Ontario Canada and I want to plant my warm season veggies early instead of mid May (2 weeks after frost). I was thinking I’ll put in some floating row covers made of perforated polyethylene. Given that temperatures in April are 12degrees to 5 degrees Celsius, do you think I could start planting in April with this system in place ? Veggies in question are tomatoes melons eggplant etc. ps our April’s are sunny

Some fig varieties take much longer to propagate then others.

I have a chocolate Mimosa that I was trying to are layer it did start growing from new buds but no roots so I ended up cutting it off and I'm trying to get it to root in water or should I use sphagnum peat moss or coco choir

Green cutting in coir with humidity dome rooted in two weeks end of May first part of June no hormone powder either.

[capcats]

Did you have to water it during those months?

[ashleys]

My fig cuttings and fig died over winter it was an Olympian fig said it could survive my zone 6b but I tried to take cuttings in the late fall so idk 🤷🏽‍♀️ if I accidentally killed it

[flicksfarm]

If you do this in the hotter months you can have this growth in about 2 weeks

[cmt]

was the temperature so low that it took 100 days to become only like that?

[Coolguyallthetimek]

They root much much faster in the spring or fall..

[cggiedinghagen]

Have you tried rooting a Jaboticaba this way?

[fillfinish]

will it produce figs .
are there male and female fig trees?

[tezzasbigbuz]

Wanna know how to organically root it 99% faster
