I have a couple of green tips on the plants in cold storage. So far, I brought out one plant only, a duplicate of my best fig last year (Brooklyn Dark) that I hope to wake up and up-pot as a gift to my future in-laws (son getting married next month). It is supposed to be 70 degrees today, really unseasonably warm!Ed

I sing mine lullabies every night so they stay sleeping(just kidding). I'M NOT READY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The buds are swelling on many and slowly starting to burst on a few. Brebas are starting to get noticeable all over the place.Calvin, Wish list is to finish working on the new house, someday.
Bored? Grab a rake, paint roller, or a cordless drill and come over!Comment

Calvin, I wasn't ready either but when the leaves were opening I got the urge. Then I
started moving more and more of them out. The forecast is for upper 70's to the
low 80's through next Wed and lows in mid to upper 50's.newnandawg 7b Newnan, GAComment

I started to bring some of my 1 year old fig trees ( potted ) from my garage to outdoor abt 3 weeks ago for 3 - 4 hours only in sunny days. All leaves were healthy right from the beginning. Temperature was between 9 - 12C by the time I bring them outdoor but now I found some trees the leaves begins to wilt from 5 days ago, so I stopped bringing them outdoor again. Did I do anything wrong to cause them trouble to look wilted.Comment

I was gonna say...what shuffle? I put mine out on Saturday, and according to the 10 day forecast there is no looking back! Only shuffle I'm doing is in and out of the shade for the plants I'm hardening off. I also learned today that Nero600m apparently makes brebas. Dunno if it will keep it, but I'll be damned if there's not a fig on it.Brett in Athens, GA zone 7b/8aComment

I'm starting to get some cold days at the end of my 15 day forecast. Low of 34.Don - OH Zone 6a Wish list: Verdolino, Sucrette UCD, RubadoComment

The first trip for the trees to go back inside. Forecasting possible frost tomorrow morning and
likely Monday and Tuesday mornings. Look at the growth in the first pick compared to these.
That is eleven days with temps in the upper 70's and low 80's.

Snowing here. Looks like mine will be stuck inside for the next 3 days. Yours are ahead of mine. Looks like you've got some good growth going.Don - OH Zone 6a Wish list: Verdolino, Sucrette UCD, RubadoComment

Mine will stay inside until Wed or Thur also.
What have your temps been there in Columbus? -
The last couple of weeks have been good been 40-70F. I left the ones in my little greenhouse outside with a headlamp on under 45F. The next three days are 27-48F. After that, the forecast bounces around but nothing under 38F.

I did the shuffle last night, I'll probably just leave them until Tuesday/Wednesday.Comment

I had about half of my figs and pomegranates out of the greenhouse for over a week and had to put them back. Had to start a fire last nightTime flies like an arrow, fruit flies like a banana

Pretty heavy frost this morning and a temp of 34 degrees. Will have to wait
for the inevitable damage to appear to my in ground trees. All pots were inside.Last edited by newnandawg; 03-22-2016, 08:36 AM.newnandawg 7b Newnan, GAComment

Mine come in at night, it is way to early to leave them out over night in Colorado. Out in the morning weather permitting, if not maybe out at lunch... but always in at night.
