Maintenance:
Figs are relatively low-maintenance plants that thrive in well-draining, fertile soil. They prefer full sun but can tolerate partial shade, though fruit production may decrease in low-light conditions. Water the plants consistently, ensuring the soil stays moist during the growing season, but avoid overwatering to prevent root rot. Figs benefit from a light layer of mulch to help retain moisture and regulate soil temperature. Pruning is essential to maintain shape and encourage better fruiting. After the harvest, trim back dead or damaged branches and remove any suckers at the base. Fertilize your Fig Fruit Plant Combo with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring to support new growth.
