Growing and Care Guide
- Position: Full sun is essential to produce fruit, ideally sheltered from strong winds.
- Soil: Adaptable to most soils but requires well-drained, nutrient-rich soil to avoid waterlogging.
- Watering: Requires regular, reliable moisture, especially during the flowering and fruiting season.
- Fertilizer: Feed with a slow-release fertilizer high in potassium to encourage fruit set, avoiding excessive nitrogen.
- Pruning: Generally pruned in winter to a height of 3–5m to keep them manageable, though they can reach 10m.
- Harvesting: Figs do not ripen after being picked, so they should be harvested only when soft and hanging down
