Can anyone help?
ive got a 4/5 year old fig tree that every year produces loads of figs but they seem to get to a stage and then stop growing.
They stay get to a size and then don’t grow any bigger.
When This happened Last year around September Time, I started removing some of the smaller ones as they were too big to carry over winter and the larger ones kickstarted again but it was too late as dormancy approached.
This year I’ve got more figs than last year, so thinned it out hoping to start the process earlier but they seem to have Grown really quick and then Stalled again.
out of 50/60 figs growing over the last few years, Im yet to have one that I have been able to eat.
