Growing Fig Trees in the South

1. I'm in Palm Beach Florida and was wondering what month to trim the fig? I hear conflicting info in terms of Dec (timing for dormant season) and March (just before growing begins). Any guidance or suggestions appreciated :-)
2. Thanks for the great video. I bought a Celeste fig tree this spring, and it was doing great. It even set lots of fruit its first year. However, I live in Austin and we have had nothing but rain and high humidity for weeks. I think my poor tree has rust. I cut off the leaves that were yellowing and sprayed with some organic stuff sold by a local shop. The proprietor is a botany grad from Texas A&M, so I hoped of the best. However, the leaves are continuing to yellow. And yes, they have the tell-tale brown spots. Any suggestions?
3. Awesome information.
   
   I live in Austin texas, could you recommend which variety of fig i should get ?
   
   Also since i am very new to gardening ( would be moving to our new house soon soon ), could you recommend from where i should get these fruit trees ? i am confused between doing from seed or buying from local gardner/nursery or buy from homedepot etc. If i am not mistaken then i should get it from local nursery right ?
4. Hello Jeff, I have a brown Turkey Fig Tree like yours. its being giving me real big sweet figs for about five years already. this year unfortunately the figs are being attacked by some little dark brown bug. they are spoiling the fig right before it ripens. when I pick a fig, a bunch of those little really dark brown bugs start running out. do you know what those little bugs are called an what can i use to keep them away from the fig tree. thanks
5. I noticed a fig tree in one of my customer's yards yesterday. I asked him about it and he said it was brought here from Lebanon. that tree was full grown...at least 15 feet tall. plus, he had another variety from Lebanon and two other trees. he told me I was welcome to get cuttings...then he grabbed a shovel and some plastic pots and told me to go for it now. so, I got three plants with roots. they were coming up from the trees roots, and a cutting branch from the other Lebonese tree. I am excited to see them grow.
   thanks for the video!
6. Can we grow fig tree in the Philippines? I would love to try but don't know where to get the plant.
7. Could you suggest a fig variety that would be hearty enough for zone 6b?
8. Got a laugh out of me when you faked that it burnt!
9. Great info here that I have not seen in other fig vids.
10. Rats love them too ! They'll eat all the young shoots,if you dont put them in proper places during the winter months when food sources are scarce....
11. I live in the panhandle of Florida, purchased a fig tree from Walmart I started growing it in a large planter came out one day early September and the grasshoppers had eaten every leaf on the plant in just a couple days. I intend to plant this into the ground before spring is this something I'm going to deal with every year ?
12. ITS NORMAL FOR SMALL ANIMALS THO EATH FROM THE FIGH .
13. Enjoying your videos Jeff.
14. Our figs are about 3 inches long and purple, birds are eating them as I type this, getting the mesh bags
15. I loved it Jeff! Just bummed that it is hard to grow figs where we are.
16. Love the music at the end.
    I have 3 fig trees in my garden. A Dalmation, a Brown Turkey and a Blanca Gota de Miel. All 3 do well in winter and it can become -4 fahrenheit were I live. Just cover them up with plastic or plant it in a wintersunny and windfree spot.
17. Excellent video Jeff! Enjoyed it start to finish! Thumbs up!
18. Great video Jeff... This makes me want to buy a fig tree for my SW FL garden. I have a FL Prince Peach that never got established so maybe this type of tree will do well in my full sun area. Appreciate your time & effort and all the information you provided. Always look forward to watching your uploads
19. Good vid.  First fresh fig, HUGE tree, 1960s, in Vancouver, WA (Pacific NW, cool.cold).  Never stopped thereafter.
20. In the cooler zones we just grow them in pots.they drop the leaves in winter you bring them into an insulated shed or porch and bring them out when the temps are above freezing.
