Future fig growers

Looking good

[cjccmc]

Looking good indeed! Is all that green leaf growth typical of your results or were those specially chosen for "eye candy" effect?

[Schnablfig]

I let my kids grab whichever plant that they wanted tone out of a bunch of them. Some plants definitely leafed out better than others and I'm guessing we have lost around 30 to 40 percent.

[Schnablfig]

Proud of my students and joyful to teach them some old ways on a new world.

[Taverna78]

That is wonderful of you. Congratulations to you and your students.

[Hershell]

Great job! Some will love it for life.

Now you're locked in to getting them some fresh figs this fall. Once you do that they'll really be hooked.

[DaveL]

The next generation of figsters!

Awww, he got me! I looked at the circle.

[Schnablfig]

Hahaha! I find it interesting that kids still play that game.

[Jamie0507]

[Brian M]

Great job!

[Jamie0507]

Awesome! Love to see the update on their progress.. keep up the great work!

[NativeSun]

Ohhh yeah act like you are being sweet and everything. I know you. Your wife also made you stop with the figging and you are using the schoolyard to hide forbidden fruits. Uh huh.
Or is that just me? hahha
Ill post up my kids in several weeks... we always try to time it so the trees are gifts to the "graduating" eighth graders in my garden club

[Needaclone]

um, it looks like that one student in the back row with the "Charlie Brown" tree has a case of fig envy. You'd better let him choose again...

[greenfig]

Super!
What varieties were the most successful?

[Schnablfig]

Still to early to tell really. El molino popped roots out and went into a cup yesterday though. I am excited about that!
