Excerpt from the book:

 

"If you've looked beyond Lowe's, Home Depot, or the average nursery, you've discovered thousands of fig varieties to choose from, making the selection process overwhelming. You may already know this is an important decision: the variety you choose greatly impacts both the quantity and quality of your harvest. You might be surprised to hear that after eating my first home-grown figs, I didn’t enjoy them. The right variety in the right conditions can be a game-changer.

 

Remember, every variety has different genetics determining a fig’s size, shape, color, flavor, texture, and ripening time. Heck, even whether they’ll ripen at all. What's the point of a fig tree that you can't enjoy the fruit from? That’s why I created this booklet: to save you time, money, and effort, so you can have the same wonderful fig-growing experience I’ve had."

 

About the author:

 

I'm Ross the "Fig Boss," and growing fig trees has been my passion since 2014. I’ve dedicated my life to learning everything I can about this amazing fruit. I've personally grown and tested hundreds of fig varieties, sharing what I’ve learned along the way.

 

Little did I know that after planting my first fig tree that my love of figs would turn into something this special. I’m lucky to be directly responsible for igniting the same passion in many other new fig growers. Now, I have thousands of social media followers whom I educate and help daily.
