The one at William Carlos is only 1 or 2 days a week. It’s all grown in NJ, quality stuff but can be a little pricey.  I live right across the tracks in East Rutherford. I grew up in Rutherford, same square mile my whole life.

I go here http://www.insiderpages.com/b/5643755094/17-farmers-market-east-rutherford

I try to buy only US grown stuff plus they have milk and eggs and fresh bread, 5 rolls for a $1.

William Carlos used to be the Rivoli Theater

 

As a kid we went to the Rivoli almost every Saturday.

I use PRO-Mix. It comes in several formulations. I use BX cause that’s the only one my supplier carries. I add extra Perlite (I don’t measure) and crab shell (approx 2% volume of soil), kelp meal (approx 1/2 to 1 tablespoon per gallon of soil) and a general-purpose granulated vegetable fertilizer (this year is was Jobe Tomato and vegetable 2-5-3, approx 2 tablespoon to 5 gallon of soil)

I fert my potted trees every 14 days rotating between Miracle Grow (24-8-16), fish fertilizer (5-1-1) and fish with seaweed fertilizer (2-3-1). All my in grounds died to the ground so they are also getting ferts.

I got a fig Jones, almost sprung for these

Last winter was an anomaly, I hope. All my in ground trees were last covered about  4 years ago and suffered little to no damage. Earlier I thought they did not die to the ground however, Vista Mission, MBVS, Sals (Gene), Hardy Chicago, 2 Lyndhurst White died to ground and all sprouting nicely

I expect to get some figs this year.

I find that green growth quickly molds wrapped in paper towel so I remove any buds early from cuttings that are nowhere near rooting. I bend them off way before I get leaves. I only remove the green. The cutting expends energy producing those leaves so I remove them right away when no sign of roots.

That’s like saying Fig Newton’s = Fresh Figs  :)

Left over from last year Hendersonville Green local unknown (TN). 
My first year plant put on figs but did not ripen. Received this from Chris in TN

Comes with a story 

"Hendersonville, TN. The story goes that this 80 yr old woman's Grandfather brought a small tree 
over from Italy. He kept the tree alive with water from his canteen while traveling by boat 
from Italy to New York. One of his cuttings was planted 40 years ago on the side of 
her house and the rest is history. The figs are large green with a strawberry colored pulp."

If I don’t get back to you don’t take it personal, its already gone.

Received this in a trade last year. They said it was a Bourjassotte Noire. My tree was a strong grower, put on figs that stuck but didn’t ripen in time.

That wayward branch will be trimmed.

Received this in a trade last year. They said it was a Black Ischia tissue culture. 
I don’t have red buds, maybe its still too young http://figs4fun.com/Info/Info_Black_Ischia.html

The plant I received was tiny and didn’t look like a fig. Took forever to get moving and then it grew pretty good but did not put out any figs.
