Instructions d'entretien

Ficus carica prefers a temperate climate with moderate temperatures. It requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth and should be watered when the soil partially dries out. The plant thrives in moderate humidity levels and should be protected from frost during the winter.

Récolte

Ficus carica, commonly known as the fig tree, typically requires around 150 days from seed to harvest. Harvesting figs should be done when the fruit is fully ripe, which is indicated by a slight drooping of the fruit on the branch and a soft texture. The figs should be gently twisted or cut from the branch to avoid damage. It is important to harvest figs regularly as they do not ripen well off the tree. Additionally, figs are best harvested in the morning when they are cool and less likely to bruise.

Sol

The common fig prefers well-draining loamy soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot. A mix of garden soil, compost, and sand can provide the ideal growing medium.

Engrais

Fertilize Ficus carica with a balanced fertilizer, such as 8-8-8, during the growing season. Apply the fertilizer every 4-6 weeks to support healthy growth and fruit production.

Rempotage

Repot young fig trees every 2-3 years to provide fresh soil and more space for root growth. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one and ensure it has good drainage. Repotting is best done in early spring before new growth begins.

Propagation

Ficus carica can be propagated through cuttings or by layering. Take cuttings from healthy branches in late winter or early spring and root them in a well-draining soil mix. Layering can be done by bending a low branch to the ground and covering it with soil until roots develop.

Taille

Prune Ficus carica in late winter or early spring to remove dead or diseased wood and to shape the tree. Regular pruning helps maintain the tree's size and encourages the growth of new fruiting branches.

Toxicité

Ficus carica is not toxic to pets or humans. However, the sap from the leaves and stems can cause skin irritation in some individuals, so it is advisable to handle the plant with care.

Supplémentaire

Ficus carica can be grown in containers in cooler climates, allowing it to be moved indoors during the winter. Mulching around the base of the tree can help retain soil moisture and regulate temperature.
