I recently noticed that the leaves started like curling. Its a very good tree, its about little over 2 feet and has about 30 figs on it. Its Lyndhurst, I bought it last year, kept it at home with special light for the plants. It wasn't enough light and did not grow well. When I got it outside on Spring the leaves fell off and then it was growing like crazy with that many fruits. Now the leaves started kind of to curl. It did not happen suddenly, very slow, probably within last two weeks. Could be a lot of sun and heat??

Yes, it could well be, but its hard to tell with so few clues. It could also be too much or too little water. Is there always water in the saucer? If mine stress during the heat they usually perk up a bit in the evening when it is a bit cooler. If it is heat and sun, then you might move it to a partially shaded spot until the hot spell passes. The photos don't look so bad but I imagine it would be more obvious in real life. Otherwise it looks like a strong growing and productive tree you have there. There are many figs for such a little tree.  If it is only young, you might want to take care not to let it overload itself.

No, my saucer don't hold a lot of water. I just watered it, will see it will help. If not then I will put it in shade. I will let you know how it went. 

Hi transiaberian,
What is the size of the pot ? On what kind of surface is the pot laying ? ( dirt, cement)
What did you use as the potting medium ? a fast draining mix ?
Those leaves for me mean that the tree has been missing watering. One of my biggest trees looks like that :(   ; but I'm trying to fix that with more regular watering.
You could pot up but without touching the roots.

Hi. Its in a pot around 10 inches in diameter, laying on asphalt. About soil I don't know much. I bought it from ebay last summer, kept it at home with a special light for plants (wasn't enough light though) whole winter. I also pot it in a bigger pot when I just bought it and I used top soil to add soil in a pot. The original soil that my tree came with looks black with some white beads in it, I don't know what is.

Its much better now. It seems like within like couple of weeks the fruits did not grow. Should I do anything about it?  

It looks good to me!  The fruit will only swell when they are about to ripen.  They don't all grow or ripen at the same speed.  This is a good thing.

Hi,
Have you changed something to fix it ?
Can you take a pic of the pot to judge the size. Or do you know the size in liters/gallons - to see the volume of dirt available to the tree ?
I've seen asphalt melt on hot days. Imagine the heat stored, amplified and released late during the night.
On hot days, you could spray the asphalt with water to cool it quicker or/and put some mulch like pine barks - although I imagine this is a walkway and that would look messy ...
The looks fine now, so just keep a good watering schedule and that should help. If the pot is on the small size, you could pot up to allow more freshness for the roots.

They can stay that size for a couple of months and then swell up a week or two before they are ripe.

Figs take about 2 - 4 months to ripen.  

They will grow fast for the first few weeks.  Stay that size for what seems forever and then swell up to their full size just before ripening.

Hello,
I'm glad they are looking better now.

One thing to keep in mind is that top soil is not the best to use for plants in containers. It can become heavy and compacts when you water it. Ideally you would use potting mix to ensures a soil structure more suited for growing in pots. It also contains elements that help maintain the right level of moisture, which might be contributing to what you saw. When top soil dries out in a pot, it can be difficult to re-wet and can turn into a solid block. So you might consider repotting using potting mix in the future.

The White beads are probably the left overs of Osmocote Smart Release. It's a Fertilizer.

Or maybe perlite

You can do it now, but if the tree was otherwise healthy and looking good, I would keep an eye on it for the rest of the season and the change the soil in the winter.

I usually change the soil in winter but I do pot up sometimes during the summer. They are quite robust however if you change it now it may stop growing while it recovers from the shock and it may decide to drop any fruit it has started. If you do it now, make sure to nurse it through by keeping it in the shade then semi shade for the next few weeks.
