Seattle fig grower made himself in the news. I met him last year! Nice guy.

Grasa, Thanks for posting the article. The recipe sounds doable for the amount of figs that I'll get this year.

I bought figs from him last year. Nice guy. 

Grasa, thanks for the article. I see Desert King works well for him in the Pacific Northwest. Wonder how DK does here on the east coast with a longer growing period and more full sun days?

I did note some seemingly erroneous info in one of the comments:

- "For those that want to grow figs, the best thing to let you know is that figs only grow on last year's new (green) growth. In other words, don't trim all the branches on your fig tree each year, or you'll never get any fruit!"


I guess they are referring to the breba crop?

Thank you Grasa.
