Congrats on the first ripe fig,I do question the labelling as well,does not look like EBT but differences in your climate might account for some of the differences to what BT turns out like here.my first thought when I saw it was celesta,when I read a few othe posts after which was suggesting the same that cheered me up,I'm quite new to this.I'm looking forward to the day I can pick my first(not this year in afraid),oh well,more waiting just means more time to grow more fig trees on the meantime,looks like you have been doing just that!

Ron if you have a second farm wagon you may want to put a border around it and line it with plastic it would serve as a big saucer for all pots in wagon. You could also fill the wagon with potting soil and put the pots and all I the soil 3 or 4 inches would do it. The roots would grow out of the pots drain holes you can trim them off at the end of year.

Tomorrow I expect to pick that 2nd one.  It really looks ready now but I'd rather wait till morning in order to start the day off on a positive note.

I took action tonight and ALL pots have saucers and I watered everyone until the saucers were filled.  I moved 31 of the small pots to a table then I rearranged the rest on the wagon by putting the largest right down the center then the next highest on each side and so on with the rest.  Hopefully this will give all plants an equal shot at the sun and rain.  I think the tall plants might have been shielding the smaller ones from getting their fair share of the rain.  I will be closely monitoring the saucers from now on regarding the need for watering.

When I built this wagon, even though I did take care into making it as durable as possible meaning not only did I use all pressure treated wood but stainless steel deck screws and hardware.  I did think about putting sides on but I needed to get it into service in the hope to grab as much of any nice day as I could early in the season.  When temps dipped at night, I moved them into a heated building.  Now that I have more time to plan this next one, I'll still make the bed the same way with the same materials but I can plan the addition of sides.  I like that idea about making the wagon a large mobile planter.  The thought I have is to use the wagon for pots that are 5 gal or less.  Anything larger will be set on the walk or driveway with a suitable saucer.  I really enjoy going around and watering the larger trees as I look over the new crop popping up and seeing their growth as time moves along.  That is one of the main reasons I got into figs.  I'll lighten up on the strawberries and blueberries before I cut back on the figs.
   

Picked the second fig today off of the same tree.  I also seen that many more are now entering the final ripening stage.  We should be getting another half dozen or so within the next 4 days.  Photos of this fig included plus a photo of the rearranged figs on the wagon.  Since I now posted my first two figs of the year, I'll start another thread if a new variety emerges to the picking stage.  I will also start a new thread if there is a newsworthy update on the watering situation regarding the fig tree rearrangements and a new thread regarding the powered Swifter Sifter outcome.

I appreciate the information contributed in trying to get me on the right track.  Thank you.

Ron
