What's the biggest fig you grow?

[Tim]

My biggest fig !

[ZomVee]

Same

[Tom]

Same…just ripening in NJ.

[FDM4USA]

FDM Arros Maxima... at 120 grams nothing else comes close. A true quarter pounder....

[MJFIGS]

These are huge. Whats the inside like, and taste description.

Most importantly, where can we find them 😁

[fruitnut]

BFF at 92 g but it may have been caprified. In general CdA and RGR are about my biggest.

[Halligan-]

How do you like CdA?
No body ever talks about it. My tree is loaded this year👍🏻

[ramilviax]

@Halligan have you tasted CdA yet?

[Halligan-]

ramilviax yes. It’s similar flavor to YLN but the figs are flat instead. I liked yln a little better this year. However, my YLN tree is 8’tall with 4scafolds in a 15g and my CdA is a foot tall in a 5g pot. So not quite a fair comparison. I am looking forward to next year. For me CdA is prolific for its size I was able to eat 4 90g figs off of that little tree

[Foodtreefield]

Orphan is the biggest so far. Followed closely by RGR.

[Dtownfigs]

Niagara Black

[Garlic_Mike]

Grantham's Royal, about the size of a softball. Couple others weren't

[Garlic_Mike]

Grantham's Royal, about the size of a softball. The others weren't quite as large.


Not weighed for obvious reasons.


I 258 not too shabby.

[vito12831]

Long yellow, 193 grams

[MJFIGS]

Golden Riverside and Yellow long neck

[CaricaChris]

Also an LdA. This breba weighed in at 144g (and probably would've been heavier had I not picked it a bit early).

[Vladis]

Here everyone shows giants with a "honey flavor". And I have a purple fig. The main harvest figs require pollination. The mass of each fruit is 100 g +.

[bullet08]

i forgot what my LdA source was. maybe UCD. two years i had it, it did put on large figs, but the taste wasn't optimal. maybe was too young.

[CaricaChris]

Give it another chance. For such a large fig, I think LdA has great quality. There are better tasting figs but the size, reliabilty, productivity and hardiness bump it up in my book.

[leon_edmond]

I might add that the breba LdA figs are not as good as the main crop figs. You need to let the brebas really ripen to appreciate their flavor.
LdA is one of my favorite figs. The main crop figs are solid and heavy. I look forward to LdA every year.

[moonlight]

Yellow long neck was largest ever for me.

[cybercop]

I live in a cold area where there is no Blastophaga. Growing figs of the Black Bursa type is impossible. The largest fig in my region is Dalmatiе.The tree is brought from Italy and is slightly different from the standard Dalmatie with narrow lobes. The dishwashing sponge is 8 cm / 6 cm in size.

[moonlight]

These are VERY large figs cibercap, is it possible at all to see one cut open ?
Do you have your fig tree tested, how do you know that it is Dalmatie ?

[cybercop]

The fruits have a distinct melon aroma. The mother tree was brought from Italy in the 80s by an Italian who came to visit my friend's grandfather.

[shawnjames70]

Brown turkey and black spanish gives me 100 gram figs off main crop the last frew years there 3 or 4 years old.

[Recklesstown_Chad]

Lda and golden rainbow for me. Lda is excellent if ripened during a dry spell here in New Jersey.

[RedRockFig]

LDA for now, Yellow Long Neck and Golden Rainbow still too new to grow big fruit.

[sc4001992]

I only have one fig tree in ground, and that is the Brown Turkey fig. It gets a lot of figs every year, taste is not bad, my neighbor tells me she likes it.

The figs are big, some are like Geode rocks.

[moonlight]

Are this Brown Turkey called California Brown Turkey ?

[sc4001992]

Yes, my photos above are of the CA Brown Turkey. Taste good when caprified. Otherwise not that sweet or much flavor.

[Alastair]

160 gram breba, from an unidentified tree, possibly Brunswick. Inside was dense and syrupy, honey and caramel flavored.

I recently ate the main crop. They are smaller and brilliant strawberry inside. I have rooted cuttings and will see if I get similar results.

[venturabananas]

Yellow Long Neck main crop, 197 g. But the smaller ones that ripen in fall are much tastier.

[Salvatore]

Damn, that's a monster! I got a 160g yellow long neck and I was so proud.

[moonlight]

😲 wow 😲 huge❗

[sc4001992]

Wow, nice large fig !

[JamesB]

My grandfathers unk, photos below are from a 2 year old rooted plant, they get larger on mother tree.

[moonlight]

😀😲 nice❗

[Otis]

So far, Brunswick last year, I think ~ 110g.
