you can really use any soil, good draining soil I have been using composted lamb manure lately mixed with a little perlite and pine bark chips. Before that I used Pro-Mix BX and added a little extra perlite and dolomitic lime and they grew just as well. So you can really play around with mixtures until you get it right for your own climate.

I also have a couple seedlings. I grew them from store bought Kadota figs from California. The only problem with seedlings is they generally take along time to fruit and you have a much higher percentage of getting Capri Figs than actual edible figs. I have kept them just for fun but am not counting on them being anything spectacular but you never know.

Great Video,
thanks so much for the clear informative accurate information.
I myself also grow and I do sell Unusual Fig Trees in the UK.I own a 25 acre Fig Farm in Portugal with 2,000 Fig Trees.
Do email me with your requests, I can ship to the States.The trees are under 2kgs.in weight for shipping.,usually about 2 years old and well formed.Now the Fig Trees are without leaves.So now is the time to buy and plant.......

@hooodrichtg sorry I cannot mail you a starter because of export restrictions. if you want to get a fig tree you could visit some gardening forums or find an online nursery such as figs4fu or treesofjoy in the U.S.A.

Hi, can we become partners. I have lots of property with water, but no trees. And great soil.
xavierz71 11 months ago
@xavierz71 Hi, according to your profile you live in Mexico and this would complicate things if we were to become partners. If you are interested in starting a fig plantation you could probably import cuttings from the U.S.A. One good source to consider would be figs4fun.com Furthermore, you will probably need a Phytosanitary Certificate to import cuttings to Mexico.
