Please find for sale 30+  Fig seeds variety "Brown Turkey".
Whist we might think of figs as Mediterranean fruits, we have been growing figs in Britain since the Romans introduced them almost 2,000 years ago! This variety of fig, is reliable for the UK climate will easily grow throughout the UK producing a heavy crop of sweet delicious fruit from late August. This variety is self-fertile, but as with almost all fruits you are always likely to get a higher yield with ore than one plant and a higher yield yet if you have another closely related cultivar. I also have fig plants for sale that I have raised from seed - see my other items. My 2yr old figs in my garden already have fruits on them.

Germination Guide

 

  • Place seeds in glass of water for 24 hours - discard any seeds still floating after this period.

  • Use seeds tray - ideally with a plastic dome cover
  • Ensure compost mix is moist but not wet
  • Sow seeds on surface of the compost mix
  • Gently press seeds onto surface of compost to ensure good contact
  • Sprinkle horticultural sand over seeds but do not completely cover them
  • Cover seed tray with dome cover with air vents fully open
  • Place in warm light place (20-25c) but out of direct sunlight
  • Remove plastic cover every few days and mist surface if drying out
  • Seedlings should appear after 3-4 weeks 

 

Once large enough to handle, post on ensuring you use a sandy well draining compost.
