MJFIGS - Invidious

MJFIGS

Welcome to MJ Figs! I'm growing and collecting fig trees in Chicago, Illinois (USDA Zone 5b/6a), and sharing my real-world experience growing figs in a challenging cold-climate environment.

Over the years I've learned a lot through trial and error, made plenty of mistakes, and discovered techniques that have helped me grow healthier, more productive fig trees with bigger harvests and better fruit quality.

On this channel you'll find:

Fig tree growing tips and care guides

Fertilizing fig trees for maximum growth and fruit production

Greenhouse fig growing updates

Fig variety reviews and tastings

Fig propagation and rooting fig cuttings

Pruning, overwintering, watering, and pest management

Join our growing fig community, ask questions, share your experiences, and learn how to grow healthier fig trees with sweeter fruit and bigger harvests.
