White Madeira #1 Main 2021

[MJA829]

As expected one of my top figs, and my favorite green fig, its a keeper x4

[JMF75]

I'm am so looking forward to this fig next year as mine has just been up potted to a 7 gal. That fig looks amazing thank you for sharing

[MJA829]

Both breba and main are high quality and delicious, you will enjoy them both next season.

Here is mine...plenty of figs but none ripening, seems like it's taking forever.

It's moderately late, Kevin, but sooo worth the wait. Mine ripened in mid-Oct. last year.

[Ktrain]

Anticipation sucks, lol

acerpictum, The leaves fell victim to rust...there are still some further up. I can't win here with all the rain and humidity.

[acerpictum]

Ktrain The remaining leaves "feed" the inflorescences (in the photo, the flowering phase). Perhaps the absence of leaves at the nodes retards development. Then there will be a stage of "internal" growth, or the so-called "dormancy", when the inside - the ovarys - grows and fills the cavity, and the external dimensions of the syconium change little. You need to be patient. And in the future, try to keep the leaves.

This has become my favorite fig for the SW FL environment. Excellent tasting, beautiful, precocious and highly productive. And it holds up reasonably well to splitting in the rainy season. We will see if it still keeps the number one spot when my Smiths start producing.

[Ktrain]

I have been considering this one for in ground next spring, along with my smith....and a couple LSU.

[2AngelsMushrooms]

Kevin I put WM#1 and LSU Gold in ground this spring, and a couple more. The WM#1 is just gorgeous, and it has set a lot of fruit this year. I would encourage you to plant this one for sure. It was the best fig I tasted last year.

[Ktrain]

Cool!, Thank you for sharing the information, funny thing....My WM and my LSU Gold are doing the best right now.
I will send you a list tomorrow, I need to go through my line up and figure out where I lack. lol

[It Could use another day]

I have 4 on mine I was watching a YouTube video about pinching and actually pinched the rest off thinking they wouldn't ripen. Dumbest thing ive ever done lmao.

[Ktrain]

DOH! I'm just letting it do it's thing, I have I-258 and Black Madeira doing the same thing....gah!

[Recklesstown_Chad]

Looks fantastic!

[Achilles]

That fig didn’t stand a chance again that knife. Poor thing.

WD#1 is truly an amazing fig. Top 10 for any grower.

[Halligan-]

Looks great!
cant wait for mine to ripen.

[Vitooch1]

Your on a role pal, nice 👍

[Avant_gardener]

Got a 2nd leaf tree that made a proper main trunk this year after a regen prune. It set several figs, so I’m hopeful I can try it this year.

[MyDogMike]

Mine got taken out by ambrosia beetles; hadn’t planned to replace it but I hear nothing but good about it. Well done…

[Citicodays]

This White Madeira was a dormant chip bud this spring, but it really ripped on this Celeste rootstock. Stands over 8 feet tall with fruit at every node. I’m very impressed with its vigor and precocity. I hear it tastes good, too. 🤞🏻

[TNJed]

BOOM! Nice work man…time to set those airlayers too….
