How to graft figs
This article provides a detailed introduction on how to graft figs and the green plant and flower aspects of the spring fig grafting method, followed by [] the editor's introduction.
A few days ago, I saw figs for sale in the night market. The figs were big and red and tasted very sweet. However, for a foodie like Hua Hua, buying one or two pounds is not enough, and buying more is a bit wasteful. What should I do? Do flower friends have the same situation as Hua Hua?
As clever as Hua Hua, she suddenly thought of the fact that figs have a long fruiting period, basically from June to November every year. In this case, it is better to plant a fig tree at home, take good care of it, let it grow more fruits, and pick them directly from the tree when you want to eat, which can last for half a year! Waiting to eat the fruit, fresh and money-saving, it's really delightful!
Moreover, planting figs is not particularly difficult, and it doesn't cost much money either. If you see figs in your relatives and friends' homes, you can ask for a few branches to propagate at home, and I believe your relatives and friends will not refuse!
Usually, figs are grafted in spring because the success rate of grafting is higher when the temperature is around 20-30 degrees Celsius. However, autumn is also a good time for grafting since the temperatures of autumn and winter are relatively close, although winter temperatures are low, and flower friends need to keep it warm.

However, Hua Hua still recommends grafting in spring. Although there will be no fruit in the current fruiting period, fruits can start to grow in the second year! If flower friends choose a good quality mother plant, the fruit will be big, red, and very sweet, and you can enjoy wave after wave of fruits, too much to eat!
So, what should be paid attention to when grafting? And what are the things that need to be considered after grafting? Flower friends, let's keep reading!
The first step in grafting is, of course, to choose scions! Flower friends should not rush when choosing, but ask around and compare, and only choose a fig tree that is of good quality, produces many fruits, and is sweet as a mother plant.
According to the feedback from flower friends, Hua Hua found that some friends grow fig trees that taste sweeter than honey, while some fig trees have been growing healthy for many years but do not bear fruit. Excluding the reasons for improper care and diseases and pests, Hua Hua thinks that not bearing figs may be due to the variety of the fig tree.
