So after successfully rooting 26 of the 32 varieties this rookie tried this winter, and then giving several extras to friends and relatives and trading several more with new fig friends near and far, I have 2 extras left unclaimed. These are Desert King and BryantDark. I'm looking to trade them for varieties I do not have. If you are interested drop me a PM with what you have to trade. I'll answer everyone who PMs me until I post here that they are traded. Each are in #1 pots growing in a 5:1:1:1 mix, and seem healthy. Pics attached below, Desert King on the left in both pics. If you are not familiar with these, a forum search should turn up info.

Ohh, wish I had something to trade!

Ed:

I sent a PM. Hope I have something you want as I'd love to make a trade with a nice guy like you.

You probably know I'm fruitnut on gardenweb. Here's a recent picture of my extras. They're growing like weeds.

I have nothing to trade but would be willing if all else fails to pay the shipping on a bryantdark that fig looks tasty.

I think I have trades pending for both - thanks all for the interest.  Hopefully next year I will have more extras - TONYSAC and twovkay - I will keep you two in mind.

Steve - PM sent.  Those figs really are weeds :)

Thanks, Ed.

Hopefully, I'll have something to offer next year for the Bryant dark.

Ed and Steve,

Plants look great, good work. 

Thanks to you Wills. Ed and I are just getting started and you were a huge help!!

It is good to see the cuttings I sent you growing so well, if those are plants from my cuttings lol.   

Fignutty, thanks for sharing the picture. So neat tidy and healthy looking plants!!!! I am in awe and it puts me to shame :(  I love growing to but due to lack of sunshine and space have most in containers and they suffer alot. I have questions about zucchini and will PM you with some questions if I may :) thanks in advance!

Yes Wills those are your babies!! Only the Sals El Gene was weak rooting. But once rooted even it's growing great.

Otmani - I'm pretty sure that is inside his greenhouse.  It does look great

Yes, inside my greenhouse. It's the best money I ever spent. I'm converting from 4 rows spaced 8ft apart to 6 rows about 5.5ft apart. The greenhouse is 32ft by 54ft in SW Texas. We get great sunshine all yr long. Not too hot in summer due to 4500ft elevation and not too cold in winter because 30N latitude.

Right now I'm growing figs, blueberry, western trailing blackberry, grapes, citrus, apricot, sweet cherry, peach, nectarine, plum, pluot, and kiwi.
