What happens if I DON'T prune my fig trees? A user recently mentioned they were afraid to prune their fig tree and make a mistake, but they were ALSO worried that NOT PRUNING could harm their trees. So what happens if you don't prune fig trees, exactly?
There are many reasons to prune a fig tree, but will not pruning negatively affect the health of your fig tree? The answer is: maybe. If you are growing fig trees in containers, not pruning figs could set you up for failure. In this video, we discuss exactly why pruning figs in containers is a MUST, and why it's probably a good idea to prune in ground fig trees as well.

Totally agree. Our gardener mistakenly cut off our fig tree. He thought my dad asked him to do that for some reason. Just in same 4 to 6 months, it regrew many 5ft to 6ft branches via the remains of the tree stump. I am so relieved it made it!

Good information on growing figs. My neighbor has a 10 year old Kadota that he cuts back to a 3 foot stump every year that grows back to at least 20 ft by the end of the growing season. It’s amazingly prolific. I keep mine (in ground) to 5 feet or less.
@TheMillennialGardener
@TheMillennialGardener 3 года назад
Keeping the growth new keeps the vigor in the tree. That root mass can only support a tree of a certain size. If you let that tree grow on its own schedule, it'll eventually top out and production will be limited. If you keep cutting it back, it's going to send out a tremendous amount of new growth every season. For trees like figs where the fruit is confined to new growth, I think pruning is absolutely critical.

Thank you Millennial Gardener for the shared the knowledge! I do have 4 different varieties of fig and among them there is one miniature. What ever figs my trees produce, they are first for feeding the birds (I live in a very dry place so food for birds and other animals is scarce) and whatever is left I harvest them.
@TheMillennialGardener
@TheMillennialGardener 3 года назад
I've found the lower the trees are to the ground, the less likely the birds are to land. Birds like being up high for their protection. Keeping your figs low to the ground forces them to lose their feeling of safety, so they're less likely to eat your fruits. Thanks for watching!

Let me know what you think: I'm keeping my cuttings in water covering at least two nodes (changing water 2 x a week). In a clear container at 67 - 70 degrees. They are sprouting and some are producing roots. I'm in zone 8 and hope to plant in containers and/or ground after no danger of frost. I do have a few in soil in a container - no space to do on a larger scale. Not sure how this will work, but would like your response.
@TheMillennialGardener
@TheMillennialGardener 3 года назад
@@janefoust2785 I have not personally had great results rooting dormant hardwood cuttings in water. However, if you are seeing roots form, I would stay the course. When you up-pot them, you must be VERY gentle because the roots are extremely fragile at that stage. I recommend up-potting them into small containers and letting them become rootbound enough that they'll form a tight root ball where the roots easily hold the soil together. After they form a nice, stable root ball in the soil, you may up-pot them into larger containers or in ground.

@judithzwick1184

My potted fig tree is probably rootbound. Because of the shape of the pot. It has a lip that locked the roots inside from being lifted out. The figs use to be fairly decent but as the years have passed the figs have gotten very tiny and fragile, falling off when barely touched. I have it growing on our back patio which gets the morning sun, etc. It has never been pruned or if it was it was by my husband and it's been a while. I am afraid I may kill it. My Italian grandfather had 5 fig trees, a huge Bartlet pear tree, a small group of large purple grapes, a lot of vegetables and seasonings including mint and parsley, and a number of rose bushes. They were white, red, and yellow rose bushes for many years, and a cherry tree. He also had Rose of Sharon which is very hardy on the side of the house along with some of the rose bushes. I think he had a Bachelor Button bush out front and a Christmas tree he would put lights on at Christmas time and hedges bordering the front yard. Everything thrived in that little yard. He was big on making sure everything was fertilized with fresh manure and watered well. The yard was not very big but he had a great"green thumb". He passed away a while back so I have no one to ask what I am doing wrong or not doing at all. We have some clay in our soil which is not fun walking on. So my question is what fertilizer would we be using for a potted fig tree (Grandpop's fig trees were in the ground and he cut them way down to about a foot or so every fall in NJ. He also would wrap the fig tree with tar paper and pour a lot of fall leaves inside those wrapped and tied with some clothesline. How often should it be fertilizer in the 28412 area of Wilmington, NC?

Awesome video! I have a 9-year-old English brown turkey in ground that is extremely cold hardy. Came from a 20+ year-old tree from a neighbor. We live in NJ, zone 6b. I don't wrap or cover the tree and leave all of the limbs over winter. Ice, snow, wind, everything. I prune in the early spring and propagate the branches. Typically the highest branches see some die-off but most root! I prune down to about 4 feet and it regrows to about 15 feet tall and 10 wide.

As long as you get some good heat in your summers, you should be fine. I find my figs respond well to hard pruning. I live in the Southeast where summers have merciless heat, though. I'm not sure how they'll perform in short summer areas of the Northeast with aggressive pruning. No matter what, figs in containers should be pruned. The question is, "How much?" That's where the individual must use trial-and-error.

@TheMillennialGardener 3 года назад
The best time to prune your fig tree is in the exact midpoint of your "winter." If you're in the Northern Hemisphere, that would be mid-January. If you're in the Southern Hemisphere, it's mid-July.

In my experience, fig trees grow best as a single trunk. You'll get the best looking tree. Sometimes in the beginning, you can allow a few trunks to grow, but I recommend eventually selecting the strongest one and cutting off the rest.

@TheMillennialGardener
@TheMillennialGardener 2 года назад
Yes. Figs can stand temperatures to about 20F or so when fully dormant, but if you see temps lower than that, storing them indoors is not a bad ideal. Ideally, your garage will be just a bit above freezing. I think 40F is ideal. It keeps them nice and dormant. They can tolerate occasionally falling a little below freezing, but ideally you’ll stay above. Don’t let them get warm. If it gets into the 50’s, they may break dormancy.

Thank you; your previous instructional videos (as this one) is informative, comprehensive and dispels the fears of pruning our fig trees. Nature is amazing; the more you prune, the more you get. I saw the espalier work you have done in previous videos, but am curious why you love it so much? It looks fantastic, but as I have never done it before, it appears it would limit the amount of figs produced.
@TheMillennialGardener
@TheMillennialGardener 3 года назад
Thank you. Glad you found this video helpful. Figs are EXTREMELY resilient. It's pretty safe to say my figs will be growing and producing long after I leave this Earth as long as nobody removes the trees. As for the espalier, you are correct that it will limit the amount of figs produced on a "per-tree basis." If all you want is to grow one or two fig trees, have nice, big shade trees and "set-it-and-forget-it," espalier isn't a good idea for production. I have only a simple quarter acre residential plot, and I intend to grow 18-24 fig trees in ground, all of different varieties. Espalier allows me to grow extremely high density so I can grow a ton of figs in a very small space. While each individual tree will be limited by espalier, when you talk about fruit production per square foot, it's out of this world outstanding. It's also beautiful to look at. I want an extremely wide variety of figs, and if I were to just plant fig trees in my yard, a dozen fig trees would take up my entire property with no room for anything else. Doing it this way, I'll be able to grow 2 dozen varieties, plus tons of other things. I am going to have a food forest, but confined as an "edible landscaping" arrangement so I still have plenty of open lawn for my dog to run around.

I would love a video on how to train the cuttings in their first year. How do you decide which branches to remove and which to grow tall? When I have purchased fig trees from growers, I received a 36” whip. Upon receipt, I cut approximately 12” from the top and start two more trees. I would like to know how the grower trained their trees into a 36” whip. Some cuttings immediately shape themselves into an ideal open vase but 4” from the soil level. That’s a bit low, right? These are questions I think many folks have about the initial shaping, that first year of the life of a cutting. Thank you so much for your videos and your storefront - you make it easy 😊

When I first got my whip(s) from the grower I thought the trees had been grafter because at the base there is a short fat section and the main trunk comes off of it from a slight angle. I believe it was grown from a cutting and a low branch became the trunk, right? Surely this would make an informative video for all of the fig growers. There are SO MANY videos on how to propagate fig cuttings (and yours in when to start feeding) but none in training. Pleeeeeze 😊

I think the issue is everyone has a different idea on what they want a fig to look like. Some prefer a bush form. Some want a single trunked tree grown into a large shade tree. Some want a single trunked tree kept low. Others want 2-3 trunks to give it a more twisted look. Me, personally, I'm going the espalier route. I have, probably, the most in-depth espalier training videos on the internet. At least on RU-vid, definitely. You can see them here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9HhiABxJ298.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gvY8PCnWgjM.html There is no better way to train your tree than along a wire, in my opinion.

@TheMillennialGardener

Yes, I do. A container can only support so much wood growth, so if you do not cut it back, it probably won't grow much new wood next season. Cutting it back annually is required to make enough new wood for a good harvest of figs because main crop figs only form on the new year's wood.

I've had really good luck keeping my fig trees pruned low. I cut them back really aggressively, and they perform magnificently. I have a fairly long, warm growing season though, so if you have a cooler, shorter growing season, you may want to prune them a little less aggressively. I don't think there is a one-size-fits-all pruning method. Basically, you need to take the general concepts I'm promoting and tailor it to your climate through trial and error, and you should be successful.

Do you mean cuttings you take, or the trees? I usually begin rooting cuttings in January (sometimes earlier, sometimes later), and I begin rooting when cuttings are as fresh as possible. However, you can store them in a ziploc bag in your refrigerator crisper for a few months as long as you wash them off well and let them dry before storage. The fresher the cutting, the better chance they'll root, though. Green growth with lignify after around 3 months or so as the tree puts on caliper.

@TheMillennialGardener
@TheMillennialGardener 3 года назад
Fig trees have a significant dormancy period. Trying to overwinter it indoors at room temperature is problematic because they leaf out too early. It's best to store them around 40 degrees because that keeps them under refrigeration and keeps them pretty sleepy until the right time. I've heard mixed reviews on clay pots. Figs like warm temperatures, so I actually like dark pots for figs, believe it or not. Terracotta pots tend to cool the roots down and might slow the growth. I just purchased ten 15 gallon black heavy duty nursery containers for my figs. They're not the most attractive thing, but they work so well. If you want something better looking, maybe look into one of those dark resin barrels that mirror an oak, wine or whiskey barrel? They may heat up more.

We planted a fig in the ground about 8-9 years ago. It did nothing until last year. It was a few feet tall when we planted it. It’s now prob 25-30 ft tall. We got several gallons of figs all of sudden last year. Unfortunately, we didn’t know how big it would get and we planted it in a corner enclosed by a fence and a huge Holly tree. Have to use the extension grabber to pick many of the figs. But they were so sweet. I keep freezing them right off the tree then in the winter I made fig/strawberry/jalapeño jam. Fingers crossed I get figs again this year. We’ve never pruned it.
@TheMillennialGardener
@TheMillennialGardener 3 года назад
That's interesting. Usually figs try to bear as early as the first year. Is it in a shady location? Figs need TONS of sun, so it may have had to have gotten tall enough to get above other trees to reach the sun to produce. They need to roast in the sun 10-12 hours a day. If you give them 10-12 hours of direct, unfiltered sunlight a day and lots of compost, they go bananas.

@TheMillennialGardener
@TheMillennialGardener 3 года назад
There is no fundamental need to prune a fig in-ground for the health of the plant. With fig trees in containers, if you don't prune the branches and the roots, it'll eventually choke itself out and go into decline. Now, I do strongly recommend pruning figs in-ground for convenience and fruiting. Cutting the tree back every year will produce more new wood, and main crop figs only grow on the new year's wood. In addition, fig trees can get huge, so I enjoy keeping them smaller and keeping the fruit lower to the ground. But that's entirely your call. If you want a large shade tree in your yard, and you don't mind getting on a ladder to harvest your figs, you don't need to prune the tree. I plant my figs in the ground immediately after last chance of frost. You want to get them in ASAP in the spring once the frosts and freezes stop to give them all season to establish before the fall freezes set in.

@TheMillennialGardener 3 года назад
I do recommend pruning an in-ground tree. When figs are unpruned, they tend to set too much fruit, which makes the fruits smaller and takes longer to ripen. Thinning leads to larger, earlier fruits. The high up fruits also tend to ripen better since they have the sun exposure and the birds get them. Thinning the tree for lower fruiting and more light penetration has advantages. However, if you like your tree as it is, it isn't mandatory. It's your call.

Figs in containers would be very difficult to espalier. The goal of espalier is to get the tree to be very wide and low to the ground. A wide tree in a container would make it impossible to move. I would recommend pruning a container-grown fig by "heading" it very low to the soil line (6-12") to encourage very low branching, limiting it to 1-2 main stems and letting it grow up naturally, then cutting it back pretty firmly each winter.

5:15 not sure if the wind would really be a problem here, especially since I use 10-15 gal containers. Our strongest gust this season has been 38mph. Last season we did get a 62mph gust but that was on May 21 with the big Canadian derecho - only about a week after our average first frost. I didn't have any fig trees then yet, but they wouldn't necessarily have much leaves, definitely not much fruit, so early in the season. Sticking to June onwards, the strongest gusts were 2023: 38mph 2022: 42mph 2021: 40mph 2020: 39mph 2019: 42mph 2018: 47mph 2017: 44mph 2016: 41mph 2015: 52mph 2014: 43mph 2013: 37mph 2012: 38mph Although I live very close to the first F4 tornado in Canada, the likelihood of any given location being struck by one here is still quite low. We don't get much violent thunderstorms, even regular thunderstorms only happen a few times per summer. And hurricane remnants rarely get this far and are typically much weakened. The worst we had was Isabel on Sep 19 at 43mph (although it had more sustained winds compared to most of the thunderstorms and frontal systems that set the strongest winds of an average season). The strongest winds we get are typically in the winter, when 50-60mph is not unusual. Then fall and spring are the next strongest. July to September is typically the calmest, June and October are just a bit more gusty, and then May can get quite gusty, especially early-mid May when trees don't have much/any leaves yet (native trees typically leaf out around May 15-25).

Great video as always. Your engineering, logical mindset really sets your videos apart from the other fig gurus on RU-vid. Something I am not 100% clear on - if you have to or want to cut a fig tree down to the ground (with no nodes remaining but with a root system underground), will it grow up next season? Or does it need at least one node above ground in order to grow? I have not run across anyone demonstrating or talking about this. I'm trying to understand worst-case scenarios or situations where you want to start over completely with shaping. Thank you in advance.
@TheMillennialGardener
@TheMillennialGardener 3 года назад
Thank you. I'm certainly not a guru; just a hobbyist that loves this more than anything else on Earth. If you cut the tree back to the ground with no nodes to branch out, the fig tree will have to send new suckers from the roots. If you remove the tree entirely to the ground, the root mass will still be alive and it will sucker, and you'll have to choose the sucker(s) you want to be the trunk(s). Otherwise, it will grow as a disorganized bush. This would only be something you should do if you have a tree that's really behaving poorly. Either it's damaged from cold or physically damaged on the trunk, bugs or other pests are boring into them, or it's aged and is producing poorly and has lost vigor. It's a pretty extreme measure.
