early fruit ?


so this particular plant held fruit until about 4 weeks ago
when i had to remove them since they didnt seem to be ripening.
i noticed a few days ago some green buds
today, i saw fruit already.
is this normal ?
a fig that fruits 11 months of the year ?

I had 2 fruit from it so far
one was pretty bad. thick skin and dry, no flavor
but, it was late November... LOL
the 1 fruit i had in (Sept or Oct ?) was OK, nothing to scream about
but, i will take it if i get fruit almost all year long...

Pretty sure I got this from Home Despot for $2 on sale
i think it said Green Isha, but then the tag was loose on the plant.

IMO,the shape of the 2 figs in the first photo look like breba figs.

yeah, i guess that would make sense.
now i am wondering how long between the Breba and main crops.

and also how much i will be able to change the quality of the fruit
or, if it will get better just due to its size.
Last summer was its first year fruiting, and it just had a dozen, or a little more.

Lucky for you, I have some brebas starting just this week on some of my figs in storage, but I do not know if they will hold them since this is their first year producing
