Hello All, I've just joined
I have an established Brown Turkey Fig Tree growing in a micro climate at the back of my house in Bedfordshire UK , it grew last year obscuring my patio door darkening the room so it was really pruned hard down to branches 3 to 4 inches diameter , if I'd killed it I was going to finish it off but it has new growth 1/2 to 3/4 thick already and spreads over a 8 to 10 foot area.
I have only ever had a decent crop once [About 7 pounds] they were beautiful but every year there is a good crop which only grow to half or three quarter size and do not ripen .
My question is if I prune this new growth correctly will I get a decent crop of lovely ripe figs again, I get the feeling that I am not pruning it right , some skilled advice would be much appreciated .
Thank You for allowing me to join your Forum desmo11225
