Bathenjani - Fig from Kassoum

This fig cutting I bought from Sammikassoum from eBay on June this year. It have produce many sweet fig even this is it 1st time fruiting and I plant in a very small container. From what I've seen it produce 2 crop main(1st pic) and breba(2nd pic). The breba is seedless and melt in your mouth and taste better than main crop which is crunchy and figgy in taste. From what I've read from our fig expertise in my place, fig in our country will only bear 1 crop and that is main fruit due to our weather condition and climate. But it seem they are wrong

Our climate is categorize as equatorial which is hot and humid throughout the year. We receive sun at least 11 hours a day and average temperature is around 32 celcius. We don't have any season only raining season which will affect on our fig. But overall my fig tree enjoy weather in here. If in good care, it can started bear fruit after 3 to 4 month from cutting

No elin. This variety I got from kassoum from Israel. It is bathenjani and a native from Palestine. Not a patlican. Patlican fig from Turki will drop it fruit immaturely because no wasp in here
