Intro

[RIMike]

I was wondering why the other place was lacking content. Now I found out where everyone went as I recognize many of the names here and have always valued their comments.

I've been into the figs things for a few years now and growing them in a high tunnel here in RI, but have a few outside in large pots.
Current inventory is VdB, RdB, CdDN, CdDB, White Triana, Sal's Gene, Italian Black, Marseille Black, Hardy Chicago, JH, Bryant Dark, and a few others ( thankfully they are labeled). I'' put up some photos from the greenhouse, as everyone loves pictures, right?

Welcome, you will love it here. Nice list of figs.
I was told there is to many Mikes on here so you may want to change your name :-)

[fitzski]

Welcome, Mike. Which figs have been your most reliable ones year after year.

[WillsC]

Welcome Mike, glad you found us.

George , he's not a Mike. He's a RIMike and welcome to the forum.

[fitzski]

How has White Triana produced for you? Did you get it from figtrees.net?

I was thinking of heading there this fall to pick up both White/Black Triana from Joe.

[eboone]

Welcome Mike! Yes would love to see and hear about the high tunnel experience, have considered that idea

[F. Bennett]

Welcome, Mike. Looking forward to your pictures!

[DaveL]

Welcome Mike, just over the border in Ct.. Beginning to get a few members in our area, where in RI are you home based?

[AscPete]

Mike,

Welcome to Our figs forum community.
Looking forward to seeing those photos....

[RIMike]

fitzski - the WT produce just a few figs last year and they were good, but not great. This year appears to be a different story as I have been fertilizing them all heavy with Jacks fertilizer and they have all responded very well. I got the WT in a trade actually.

Here is the WT as of this AM. Happy, healthy and loaded with figs.

DaveL - Portsmouth RI.

AscPete, The Bryant Dark I got from you has finally started to do something after a year of just sitting there. Picture to come...

[fitzski]

Thanks for the info on WT. I might pick one up when I visit Joe in the fall.

Welcome, RIMike! Glad to have you here.

Welcome, glad you joined. Greenhouses are the way to go for figs in the northeast, and your photos confirm it-nice looking crop on the WT. I look forward to your harvest report, that one variety has been on my radar for awhile.

[RIMike]

zone5figger - They do love the greenhouse. Here is 2yr old CdD Noir. It has doubled in size from spring and put out a few figs.

Beaut!
