Got home from work and all my garage kept figs had to go back in. They only got to see sun and fresh air for four days. What a shame. Those four days did wonders for them. Leaves and breba on lots of them. Maybe they will get to go back out Thursday or Friday.

I just brought mine in. It is a shame. Hey came out Saturday and in the few days buds started popping and everyone also. I only brought out my big pots. Hopefully you are right and Thursday or Friday they come back out. __________________ NJ z7a Wish list :

Mine just went back in the garage too. Another month of watching the weather very closely. __________________ Frank zone 7a - VA

I guess that's one advantage to just starting out - only needing to move 7 pots back in tonite, 1 and 5g size I feel for those with hundreds! __________________ Ed Zone 6A - Southwest PA --------------------------- Short wish list: CDDG, LSU Red, Dark Greek (Navid), Col Littman's Black Cross.

Why its called the fig shuffle and can be backbreaking if one has lots of plants to shuffle ; )

Martin, I need to cut back (way back) one of these days. It's just so hard to cut ties with them. __________________ Art- Western Pa. 6a
