What is your best method to adapt figs to direct sunlight. I just wanna know, cause year ago my fig got sunburn and stop growth for some weeks.
Slow progression into full sun. I take about 6 weeks to move from full shade to full sun, starting with a week in full shade, then very little direct sun, etc. It might be overkill but I nearly killed several trees before using this method.
Hi Maris, I put mine outside in full shade their first week outside then move them again half shade, morning sun only and by the third week. I put them in their final growing spot. Vincent zone 5 cold Canada
Shade cloth works pretty good also. My potted trees spent a week under 50% shade cloth this spring, and are now out in (mostly) full sun. I say mostly because they get a couple hours under the shade of a neighbors tree in mid afternoon.
Richie, he is talking about leafed out yung'uns, wake up.
Anyway, Vincent_15 method has worked for me in the past, it is what I use: 1 week full shade (warm weather) and 1 week in partial shade/sun, then out into full sun. Of course, make sure the first full sun is not a 90F sunny day.
Ok, thanks guys for your advice. I needed them cuz in last year as I mentioned, my fig got sunburn. :(
