Congratulations on your first Black Madeira! I've been anticipating this video. lol... Between you and PA Figs putting out BM videos, I'm anxious for my first year tree to fruit next year. It's really taken off since up potting it into a self watering container upon your recommendation.
I’ve had my black Madeira for 5 years and it won’t ripen here in Seattle area. I’m going to put it in a grow tent next spring and cheat to give it a running start.
Ahhhhhh dude! You're killing me with the socks in flip flops and unzipped fly at the end. Hahaha! I'll admit, though.......I've been known to do some gardening in boxers and crocs...... :(
I've worn cookie monster slippers and pj pants while putting my hen's inside for the night and gardening...I look at it this way we're all embarrassing sometimes. People who matter ain't gonna care much if your perfect.
Awesome channel brother...just subscribed! I live in northern Michigan: I can only bring the figs outside in the summer...do you have suggestions on which variety would be best for me to grow? They would have to be in pots and mostly indoors with summers outside. I could get plant light too if you think that's a good idea. Thanks!
There' alot of folks with your climate who still grow figs. I would suggext Violet De bordeaux and Ronde De Bordeaux. Black madeira if you can get you hands on it and the smith fig.
Wow man, this is so great, congrats! I know you have worked really hard for that fig and I have been waiting to see you hit that milestone. Please let us know if you do a run of Black Madeira fig pops, I would looove to get a cutting from a reliable source. Also really loved seeing your ultimate breba list. On a side note I have been marveling at some of the videos of the fig varieties at UC Davis.. Some of them are just flat out incredible looking. Thank you very much for making these videos, so awesome to get fruit growing tips for the pacific nw area.
Sprinkle a little Habaniaro or Chianne pepper Powder or Bag the ones you want. I had to do this to my (4) Fuyu PersimmonTree fruit to Detere the deer and Coyotes from stealing my fruit. Just Remember which fruit you Treat. I also use Rabbit and Deer Grannuals around the base's of the trees. Been a Big help. Now I have squirrals digging up my White Oaks and Onions Dang it.
Hey , I am one of your fan, I like your fig collection very much, I would like to know how to get black Madeira, as I live in Pakistan I don’t have this variety here but I really want to grow and taste it
Hey Ben, I am in the process of buying some cuttings from a seller in Portugal and was wondering if you be interested in doing a Madeira cutting swap? Please get back to me if you have any interest.

I thought Smith figs were good BM's are in a different category

Why growing in the pots? Or it’s only in the beginning you do!
Thank you, nice info
I'll be buying a black madiera based off of your reaction when you ate it

Hi Ben, what's your top 3 favorite figs varieties?
Xin hỏi tôi muốn mua vài loại giống cây tốt, bạn có chia sẻ ko?
Ben, I read in your blog that you took a chance on some BM from Portugal that you got off eBay. I was wondering if those were true BM?
Napster1 it was not a bm
Ben B. Seattle Thank you! The prices are tempting. I got Preto so I don't know if I should get BM, I hear people say they are one in the same?
Preto is like the little brother to BM, smaller almost as good
What do you do with all the figs that you don't eat personally?
Share them with guest
