Fig Tree Renovation Prunning Year 2

Johns words: Second year renovation pruning takes many years because you only remove a few of the large branches each year. Then you train the new growth in the proper shape. It damages the rootsystem if you cut the whole tree in one year because there won’t be enough leaves to feed the roots.

    • @BlakesNaturelife
      @BlakesNaturelife Месяц назад

      Usually, the first one you plant is not gonna be as big when it flowers but the next ones will become larger. To help with that, you just give it tons of mulch, compost around the base of it. Anything you can think of to help lower the pH like Pinebark. Any yard waste is perfect even grass clippings and leaves. At least wait about three months before they start turning yellow, should be fat enough to cook with.

      Put together a frame at least a few inches above every branch. Christmas lights non-LED and also on the really cold nights you can put a little heater under it. Put it on the southside of home. Or make you a solar greenhouse that you can cover in the winter. It’s actually easy to do just gotta keep it alive through them a few nights, depending on where you live at. It is possible.

    • @BlakesNaturelife
      @BlakesNaturelife 4 месяца назад

      Since that video I’ve been growing some out. I would always recommend trying to keep it above 27° or at least 30. Some varieties that are grafted called Suebelle can handle about 24. Also gotta think about windchills. I would recommend having a structure that would be wind blocking And something to cover the top of it and you can always pull it back off when spring or when that cold front is gone. Just as a back up so you never get damage to the tree. I’ve been growing one from seed coming on five years in the ground. I was able to keep it alive with water when the temps were under 15°.

The silky oak tree Grevillea robusta has orange flowers that attract a lot of insects and birds at our place. That looks like it could be a Bunya pine at 31:33 (Araucaria bidwillii) It has very tasty seed nuts in the huge pine cones. If it is a Bunya pine in your video I hope it is a female and bears well when it grows up.

      This is over near Tallahassee Florida John was tell me about his grandpa would grow the figs up as they were still slender easy to pull down. He would lay it on the ground and put pine straw all over it. When spring would come it would make new shoot have fruit in it. He would cut it back or repeat the process. Most of figs are tip fruiting meaning fruits on new growth. Trying to grow them on the south side of the house or in greenhouses might help.
