THIS is Destroying Our Fig Trees!
This spring, we’re finally seeing the truth about what winter did to our fig orchard… and it’s not good. Now that our fig trees are starting to leaf out, we’re noticing significant dieback on certain trees—and it all traces back to something many growers have never heard of: southwest injury (also called southwest disease). In this video, we walk through the orchard to show: • Which fig trees were affected (and which weren’t) • What southwest injury actually is • Why it causes damage on only ONE side of the tree • How winter sun and cold temperatures combine to kill living tissue • What we’re doing now to manage the damage • And how you can prevent this from happening to your fig trees If your fig tree is leafing out unevenly or showing dieback this spring, this could be the reason. 👉 This is one of those problems that looks like a disease—but it’s actually caused by environmental stress. #figtrees #gardening #backyardorchard #growyourownfood #homestead •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• PRODUCT LINKS: SQUARE TOMATO CAGES: https://amzn.to/3YgFE9S BOX OF TOMATO TWINE: https://amzn.to/44x5Von P1 DRIP TAPE: https://bit.ly/3EzAg8z RAISED BEDS: https://lazydogfarm.com/collections/r...
