Hi Barry what type are those that you picked.
Thanks.

nice mix of dark and light. looks wonderful. my figs are slowing down. just one and two here and there. hopefully i'll get another plate full of different figs before the season is over.

Pete,

It's amazing what a few hundred miles will do. Mine are just now hitting their stride.

next year will be much better. i have some very good late varieties growing right now. hopefully they will extend my season.

Very Nice.  Do you have a favorite?

Brooklyn White, nice and juicy good flavor.

Tmc2009, of this group the Bisirri Lightnot ( sold as light, it is not) is best, of the lights, I really like Latarolla.

Getting nice quantities every day now. Sal's Corleone is coming in as VDB and Bisirri Dark and Lightnot are finishing up. Losing a lot to ants, gotta get some tanglefoot, just haven't been able to get to the store. Losing a fair amount to birds and squirrels too.  So we have SC VDB, Bisirri Dark and Lightnot, Dark Portuguese, Latarolla and Brooklyn White.

Berry beautiful figs hope you're enjoying. Rifle will be good idea  for these little  monsters.

Barry, Every fig looks so good.  How many fig trees do you have to produce so many figs everyday?  How old are your trees?
