I have a fig labeled as Black Brolo, bought it from someone off craigslist, I'm not sure exactly what type it actually is. My question is should I pinch the top growth to encourage a more bush type fig or is it too soon? The second fig was a branch that broke off an older tree and it rooted. It was growing straight up so I pinched it....hope I didn't mess it up. The third pic is another fig from the same guy and he had it named Sant Angelo. That one I'm trying to air layer with a bottle. Any advice on what I'm doing wrong or right?

Thanks, Carmine.

I like my trees to branch out, hence I pinch.

Judging from my photos would you pinch now or wait till it leafs out more?

If you pinch you will get more side growth. Don't worry, figs are tough!
