Often if you root fig cuttings in a large enough pot it will produce figs the next year. The poms will take about 3 years but air-layered poms also don't often fruit until the 2nd year. I do cuttings more than layers because from one branch I can make 5, 6 maybe even 10 plants, but I also sale and trade a lot of plants so this is the best method for me. For the average homeowner just wanting to expand their orchard or share a few plants layers are a great choice.
