Pruning fig trees is an art. Where you cut determines where the tree will grow new branches and set fruit, so you must know how your cuts will affect the tree's form. This is a complete guide for perfectly pruning a fig tree for balance, symmetry and maximum fruit production, as well as taking fig cuttings to propagate fig trees from the pruned wood.
While this video focuses on pruning fig trees in containers, these principles can be applied to pruning in ground fig trees, as well as most other fruit trees.

I did it. Our 4yr old container desert king, pruned and root pruned for the first time last week plus I got it up into a 15 gallon nursery pot. I was left with 3, 24 inch scaffolds at the bottom...and a center trunk that I pruned down last week to 44 inches in height. Well today...i did the scaffolds again down to 21 inches and pruned the center trunk down to 21 inches. I was so afraid to bring it all down to same height but if what youre saying is correct..then I cant go wrong. Thankyou so much, I feel relieved that I just got it done. .

take it from a Fig Tree owner who knew almost nothing about Figs when I bought my tree at the Colonial Williamsburg Garden Market 20 years ago. This is a knowledgable & excellent FIG EXPERT. I learned so muchj by watching this & another Fig video from this Creator. My own tree is in the ground & ever since the 1st year after I bought my tree (it was 2 feet in height & after pruning each year, it still gets too high for me to reach the top; it's 15 feet as I write this) I've ALWAYS gotten amazing fruit in August. I'm in the Northeast in zone 6 & every since the 5th year, I've pruned this tree almost back to its root base. I kind of WISH it wouldn't make so much fruit since most ppl don't know how delicious Figs are. Plus, they're kinda unforgiving as far as ripening. Once picked, they ripen quickly. But as far as pruning? Well, every year just to keep this tree manageable I prune it back BOTH in Winter & a few times even in March/ early spring. So, I wish I knew what Fig tree type I have, but this tree is almost indestructible. I've never fed it, ignore it & it still produces bushels & bushels of Figs every August.

Such a helpful explanation as to the reasons behind pruning. Clear explanation of the reason you choose to cut this branch vs. that branch. Keeping the branches at about the same height from the ground to encourage growth in both sides was something new to me. Thank you.

Thank you for the clear, rational explanations with demonstrations. This has been very helpful. I've had a fig tree for over 15 years--from a glorious parent tree full of delicious fruit. Mine is a stick with some leaves. Now I feel confident enough to prune it and maybe create some cuttings. I live in Canada so it probably should remain a houseplant. Maybe I'll share how it goes, if it goes. Say hi to Dale and give him an extra treat for me. :)

I really like how well you explain everything. Especially about apical dominance and also about diagonal cut not being parallel to the ground. Most people just say that it needs to be an angled cut but don’t really explain that it need to be on an angle from the ground as well to properly shed water.

Excellent, informative, no BS instructional video. You don’t just do, you explain why. I just moved (October) across town and took my fig tree with me. It originally belonged to my great grandfather. I’m 60, so that should give you some indication of how old it is. I hope it can survive the upcoming NJ winter. I think I will take some cuttings to hedge my bets.

I'm glad you found it helpful! It may be in your best interest to grow it in a container and overwinter it its first season. It's very popular to store dormant figs in the garage from December to February in New Jersey for those that grow figs in containers. You can then plant it in April or May when the frosts stop and give it all summer to establish and strengthen.

@paulwayne9695 2 года назад
@@TheMillennialGardener thanks for the response. I wish bringing it in was an option. When we moved it, the root ball was about 5’ across and the tree itself is about 10’ tall. And my new garage is under construction. Perfect timing. I don’t usually cover it, but I will this year.

I'm happy to hear the videos are helpful. For the winter pests, now is a great time to spray them down with a natural pyrethrin based spray. I have pyrethrin concentrate linked in my Amazon Storefront if you need some. A little $15-20 bottle lasts me most of the season, even with my entire garden and regular use here down south. I recommend it.

Best video I seen on pruning figs. Great basic details without overwhelming information. I leave in Greensboro, zone 7b, I guess you zone in Wilmington is the same or maybe 8. I started to collect this year with some 15 varieties. My first fig tree, I bough eight years ago and never produce. I took couple cuttings and reproduce them, after three years (2020) they produce around 40 figs each and I got hook. Now the original older tree have some signs of fruit production showing some double buts. Is very hard to fine out the figs varieties USDA growing zones most of the times. I have to go by what growers plant on their location, but mostly they do not mention their growing zone.
@TheMillennialGardener
@TheMillennialGardener 3 года назад
Thank you. I tried to keep it short and to the point, but not so short it lacks detail. I'm in a very strong 8A here in Brunswick County (the last 2 winters have been 9a by my weather station). It's interesting your tree took so long to produce. Typically they produce first season. When this happens, it is likely due to underfertilizing and lack of pruning. Figs are heavier feeders than any plant I've ever grown and require monumental amounts of fertilizer, especially when grown in containers. We're talking weekly full strength feedings of MiracleGro soluble, plus bone meal and organic granules. Pruning them back pretty heavily in the winter and heavy fertilizing in the spring and summer gets them to really produce a lot of fruits.

This was the most thorough and easily understood instruction on how to prune fig trees. You are an excellent teacher. Many thanks. I recently inherited many fig trees from a friend who died. I have been watching so many videos about successfully growing fig trees. Several have given contradictory/ confusing information to this “newbie”. I am trying to sort it all out, and know that after watching one in particular, I should NOT have gone outside and removed the apical bud! Well, it’s done😖. I have been carefully studying each tree and there is one ( btw, they are all in pots) that has 4 new shoots coming from under the soil and right next to the main stem. I think that these 4 should be removed and discarded, because they would not root. Is this correct? I see no tiny figs on these shoots, just lush growth. Again, thank you for sharing your experience and expertise with us all.

Thank you for explaining fertilizer. I have (Chicago Hardy?) figs in the landscape in Southern Illinois. Most years all the branches have died out. In 2 years I got the early fig in June and the later fig in September. A neighbor who I gave starts to has kept them in their garage in containers over the winter.

Thank you for all the tips on this plant. Here in Great Malvern U.K we have been having a lot of fruit but not many of the fruit grow to size . I will wait for the cold weather and cut some height and width of this 7ft tree. A kind neighbour gave it to me 4-5 years ago we have had a few ripe fruits but not many . Also the birds seem to peck at the fruit at times. I will follow the pruning tips here and see if the main few stems can produce more fruit next year .

Good information, I am currently trying 4 different methods of rooting, I has been almost two weeks since I started them.....keeping the fingers crossed, God willing I will get some to work.

Good luck! Usually, it takes 3-4 weeks to see roots. Sometimes, it can take as long as 5-6 weeks if conditions aren't right.

Fantastic video, super clear and instructive. BTW, the pull saw have two sides, one is for cross cutting the other one for rip cutting. The "fine" one is the one for cross cutting which it is what you did.
