This is my first official main crop of the year.. Very brown sugar figgy flavor, to me very similar to Black Mission.

Nice to see this fig correctly ripening near Pacific shores.As the young tree settles on its ground over the seasons, . the fig quality and attributes will certainly improve.
Here it's nr1 on most southern farm markets every season (either fresh or dry). Congratulations!Last edited by JR; 07-30-2021, 06:46 AM.Comment

Tom, on the old Figs 4 Fun forum I saw one of our members here ( Vladis ) say that it's important to not over-water in order to get the best flavor, and deeper red flesh (if I remember right). Igor ( greenfig ) has some experience with this. Any of you guys care to comment on your experience with how watering (or over-watering) affects Inchário Preto? And especially important: how can you tell when it NEEDS water? I don't have a plant yet (killed my scions this spring), but I'd like to learn.Alan. Los Angeles area. Zone 10b (Sunset zone 24).
Looking for: Boysenberry Blush, Hative D'Argenteuil, Ondata.Comment

@ZomVee,
Congratulations ! The tree look much bigger
Nice IP fruit ! How would you do for pollination? ...Let Nature bring it in or force it with a few mature Profichis brought from the caprifig?
Once the job done the fruit will show diff skin color and loose the light glare ... and this shall be done rapidly.
These were pollinated a few days before pics date
Tones of Emerald light color appear on the fruit skin following pollination..together with a few white speckles!
Wish you good luck

CA-orchard I just had my first fig yesterday...a Planera
This fig gets better and better the longer you let it ripen.
Got wiped out by the fly this year -
Oh Planera! I love that fig.
Sorry to hear about the fly. I hope this is not my last season fly-free. I am testing push pins to close the ostiole. Seems to close the eye pretty well until ripening.

Wait for me! I think I am a week or longer away from my 1st IP. -
CA-orchard You're joining the IP club?!?!?
Hell yeah!
I recommend waiting as long as possible, when it hangs

I've tried my best to
pass this variety around
In California
I'm more a fan of berry figs
but the brown sugar sweetness
Of Inchário Preto is fantastic!
If nothing else
She's a monster!
Takes grafts well
Always pumps out thick, fatty limbs
Superior rootstock attributes
if anyone is looking for that
I mega hacked her back
This year
And she didn't care at all

One of the 4 cuttings you gave me of this is 6ft tall with 2 lateral branches that are about 4ft and the lower branches have some figlets on them. I don't think it would time to ripen this year but yes, its a beast as far as grown. -
BuzzlLightBeer Yeah, wasp window is over, but damn...you have a nice foundation for next year!
