The fig world celebrates the return!
Holy shizzzz! He's back!
you're too kind
There he is! Good to see ya, Ben. We had the same weather issues down below you in Yelm. Your yard looks fantastic with all those figs growing everywhere. Makes me want to plant figs around all my rhododendrons, lol. Looking forward to seeing future updates on the in ground figs. You've got them really close together and I want to do the same but have hesitated due to how large some of these varieties get. Looks like you've got lots of pruning in your future. Congrats on the new baby and take care Ben!
Nice to have you back Ben B ! We all missed you.
Good luck with all around and with you !
Okay now I am going to watch your video.
So glad to see you back! I totally understand the new baby thing! Take your time and don’t worry. Your fig friends will be here patiently waiting for your awesome fig reviews!
congrats Ben! good to see you around and look forward to the evolution of the channel!
Ben, I wondered what happened to you, this video answered my question. Only problem I was late to come back and check on your channel. It was nice to hear from you and see your updates, congratulations on your new child and good wishes in 2020.
So glad to see you back, Ben.
Nice to see you back Ben and great to get a tour, congrats on the new addition to the family 👍👍
Good to see things working for you. Love your garden
Glad to see you doing well, congrats on the new baby. You have been missed, thanks for the update.
You have been missed! It has been a tough year for figs. I have only gotten a bout ten ripe figs. Lots of figs, just not ripening in the PNW. Your back yard is going to look really nice when you are done!
Wow your garden looks amazing. Keep up the good work man. Good example of urban gardening. Congrats on the kid.
Ben! Congratulations on the new baby! Nice seeing you on YT again. :D
congratulations on son #3. Would love to see list of "premium" figs and "good" figs that went into the ground. thank you
I’m down in Olympia and my garden wasn’t so great this year. Everything was set back by about two months. The only things that fruited decently was my blueberries, raspberries, a couple blackberries, currants, and elderberries. I’m working on growing my fig collection but now I want to focus on great varieties for our area.
Your yard is beautiful. I have a more typical Seattle yard (small), but still have made space for a couple fig trees. Thanks for the information, it's inspiring
Yeah, I feel your pain with weather this year. We had last frosts through mid May and it really was hard to get the plants going quickly when the weather warmed up drastically in June. We've been planting more berries to be a little more reliable even with all the difficult weather. Our raspberries did great and our strawberry patch is filling out, so next year should be really nice. The gooseberries have been growing like they're not really bothered by anything. In the PNW you should be swimming in berries (I grew up in Edmonds, WA) :)
Congrats on your third son Ben.. Glad that you're back. Been missing your fig video.
Congratulations Ben and welcome back
So great to see your video again! Congratulations to your new baby boy. What a great spacious yard. Really enjoyed seeing the tour and your new hobby. I live in Renton too, will email you for the fig trees. Take care!
Missed your videos this year man! Thanks for the update!
Good to see you back.
Hello! New subscriber thanks to Vinny Figs for pointing me your way. I'm in Western WA too and was definitely a disappointing year for most things in the garden. I'm looking to add 2 fig varieties to my backyard garden so am VERY interested in what you might have available to sell or give out. I'm on the East side but will come to wherever you are to pick up! The only fresh fig I've ever tasted is a desert king so I'm interested in trying others. I especially like that golden riverside you raved about. Would be interested in potted trees but would take a couple cuttings of that one if none are available. Hope we have a better season next year!
It's been to long Ben. Glad to see your back! Looking forward to updates
Good morning from Auckland, New Zealand.
Yo Ben, when we Italians have a wet season, and we know it by the weather network, we simply lay the pots on their sides so the plant does not get water logged. Im in Canada, 40 min north of Toronto Maryann, aka
Fig Diva
Great to hear from you Ben. Congratulations on the baby & your new endeavors. Your gain, our loss. Like Mike Kincaide & others. I noticed how close you planted the figs. How will you able to walk between the trees to maintain & pick fruit. It would be great if you would do a video on the strategy, including pruning (or provide a link to information that we could check out.) I have a small yard. Dense planting would be great, if I could figure how to do it correctly.
It will be nice to find out which varieties make it in ground in our climate.
It’s been such a cool weird year, definitely not a good fig year. Congratulations on the new addition to your family!
Good to see an update Ben! It’s been a bummer year for figs, but a great one for bonsai. I’m tempted to hit you up for figs now😎. We’re going to have to hook up and do a collaboration video one of these days. Hopefully family life treats you well. It can be challenging, but so rewarding! Enjoy life, bro🤙
I'm down for that!
Your collection of fig tree's looks Awesome as always 👍 will definitely keep an i out for when your selling them
You don't think you are planting them too close?
I bought a fig tree and planted it into the ground. In one year it grew 3x. It was a lot different than a potted fig tree.
More 'bonsai' opportunities
Hi Ben,
I'm in San Francisco, right near the ocean. I want to grow a fig in a pot. Can you recommend a good variety? It is cool and foggy and dark all summer, around 65° high. Our only warmth comes in September-Oct, when it is usually around 75°-80°. We have a large tree at the community garden, it makes a lot of fruit, but it never ripens. I just ordered a Violette de Bordeaux cutting. I hope that is a good variety for this weird climate.
Good afternoon Ben. Thank you very much for your videos. very useful information. I want to ask you to send me all your cuttings of varieties of figs. I also have a little son growing like yours and I want him to eat figs too. Thank you very much and good luck.
if you had only one black fig to choose from, what would you choose? I have room for only one fig tree and was wondering what your thoughts were :)
We're few hours from you all our trees were sick this year and couldn't fruit they normally produce a lot.
I experienced it for sure. it was the late snow storm. Kinda messed them up
@@BenBSeattle yeah I think it really hurt them they aren't acting right for time of year.
Wow! What a fig fantasy garden!
How big is your garden, btw?
Your yard has turn to a fig forest I remember the last time I watched you had trees by the side of your wall
Yay new info for this fig newbie
Congrats on the kid!
Have you heard good or bad things about "Beyond vineyard and nursery " ? thanks
i thought I was the only one who struggled with my potted figs!
Do you still find the beige self watering pots to be most ideal pots for figs?
Not for winter. If they aren't tipped. It will drown the tree
Do you have any fig trees or cutting for sale? I will in Seattle June 26

@@boblouie2345 I have listed everything I was going to sell on offerup offerup.com/item/detail/861495316/someone has already snatch up over 30 varieties from me
Discovered your vids for the first time today! Congratulations on the new baby! We have 4 sons and vids can take some time to put out we would love your email, we are in Seattle and searching for fig trees! 😀
Would u consider selling cuttings of the ben golden riverside fig
How do you know when a fig is ready to pick?
it should give to the touch, in some cases the honey will drip out of the eye
So glad to see the new video, thank you! Congrats on the new baby. Please keep us posted on which figs make the list for the fig gardens.
Ahh goals haha
