Скачать или смотреть Fig pop up potting, when to do it and how to do it..... not really well. Zone 8b

Remove the fig from the fig pop plastic and strive to up pot them. The problem was, I didn't water them enough and they did not make it after up potting them. I start off with a Kadota then up pot a C188 from the Fig Hunters.

Yes, I have the fig love problem, it is a problem that I will hopefully overcome soon. I want to know what figs will grow and thrive here in zone 8b desert. I am starting with about 50 fig starts. I have killed multiple figs trying to start them with various approaches. I thought I would keep track of what is working and what is not working based on the research I have done to grow these starts. These were all placed on a heating mat set at 79 degrees and I made some adjustments each week based on growth or lack of growths. Most of these starts were purchased from Profig and Fig Hunters. Some are from figs I already have, but not well established.

Soil:
Soil is about 50% coconut core, 10% rice hulls, 40% vermiculite and perlite. I also added some mesothelium to help jump start the rooting. I mixed it all in a 5 gal bucket and then added 1 gal of water to the mixture to not make it too wet or have it too dry.

Hormone:
Some of the varieties I added liquid growth hormone, some with the dry hormone. I also removed some of the bark to expose the cambion layer, some I did nothing and just straight up placed in the mix.
Watch all of the videos, I will post one each week to update what survives and what dies, updating on how they are watered, when to up pot, and what to do if they start dying..... I have nothing to lose so I will just try things out and see what works.
