Do they have a very tight eye? Most figs I can't do down here ,sour bugs.Any rust resistant?
-
Hi Shot,
yes they are tight , I really don't know about rust resistant, If you are talking about Rust in Well Water, well that type of Water will stain just about any Plant or Tree, including the House.

My favorite way to root them, you can use soil mix or large sized jiffy pellets. I have had great success rooting figs this way for many years. You can use Starbucks cups and lids to do it too, the lids provide adequate humidity which encourages root development. Good luck!

Hi John,
Glad you got your cutting, it was hard to pack them in the Flat Rate box, I never use those, but I had to in order to print your label straight from USPS,usually I just print the label from PP.
I always remove the bottom wax, you can cut 1/8'' 1/4'' of to get rid of the wax.
There is many ways to root cuttings, like ManVF. in an open coffee cup, reg. 7-11 store plastic drink cup with a lid, the Fig pop method,like ones in the container over cable tv box, some in a plastic storage container outside sitting on the ground, and the 1 gal. container with a Pepsi Bottle over it, there are many ways, use what works best for you!

I'm spoiled now I like buddy tape.I hope wanye is well. He is the one who got me on all the new zill mangos as I was behind the curve.

Guys I wrap some but not all, actually out of all the cuttings I'm trying to root right now, the ones that are doing very good are the ones sitting in the ground in a container, with the lid on top.
