3rd Crop...? what to do.

so...since it was nice and warm after the crazy nice rain following by strong winds I decided to give them figs some water, you know... regular nurturing....ugh.
Well the split was the last thing in my mind when I was quenching their thirsts. I had never had this before in my garden.

Good morning Aaron and forum friends!
Aaron You refer to this fruit as a 3rd crop . From what I understand your tree has not gone dormant this year!
I also know of a white variety back home that carried two crops, very early first crop with huge fruit of med quality ,kinda dry that split almost every one but awesome second crop, mid August medium size ,very sweet and juicy! Does Your tree tend to split the first crop? Maybe it is a new cycle and a first crop,instead of a third? Trees DO get confused very often in unusually warm weather!
Just a thought ; )
Have a great day all,

Hi Chris,
This tree had finished the main crop and then started to bloom again which are the figs in pictures above.
That was the only fig that split, the rest are still OK and the oldest one that was ripening I ate too (without split)
So...I don't really know what happened with this tree... it was a new crop and now they are slowly ripening. weird of you ask me.

edit: Weird, if you ask me... (oops, not "of you"..."if") , that changes the entire meaning, LOL
