The BEST TIPS for Repotting Fig Trees | Planting a Fig Tree in a Pot for Success

This video demonstrates the process of up-potting and transplanting a fig tree into a larger container. The importance of using large containers (minimum of three-gallon size) is highlighted for successful fig tree growth. Next, the discussion transitions to the type of soil to use, emphasizing the need for well-draining soil and creating air pockets in the soil for healthy root growth. Tips are given on mixing soil ingredients, which include vermiculite, perlite, bark, shredded bark, and rice hulls. For more information on the repotting process, check out the companion guide to this video, here: https://www.figboss.com/post/the-best... The actual up-potting process starts with positioning the tree in the new container and considering burying a portion of the trunk to stimulate root growth. The significance of packing the soil firmly around the root ball to avoid air pockets is underscored. After planting, a half cup of a slow-release fertilizer mix, including balanced NPK and micronutrients, is added. Some of the recommended micronutrients include vermiculite, oyster shells, green sand, rock dust, gypsum, or lime, as fig trees benefit specifically from these. Finally, adding mulch to the potted fig tree is recommended to help with transplant shock, regulate soil temperature, and improve soil life. After the up-potting process is complete, it's suggested to tag the pot for identification. Introduction (00:00): The discussion begins by emphasizing the importance of using larger containers for growing fig trees, mentioning a three, five, or seven-gallon pot as a minimum requirement for successful growth. Up-potting Importance (00:33): Further emphasis is placed on the benefits of larger containers, which provide the tree with more space to grow, better access to water and nutrients, and lead to potentially larger fruit production. Soil Advice (01:33): The discussion shifts to soil types, with emphasis on using well-draining soil mixes to support the fibrous roots of the fig tree. Tips on creating air pockets in the soil for better root health are given. Soil Mix Ingredients (02:07): Specific ingredients for a well-draining soil mix are suggested, including vermiculite, perlite, bark, shredded bark, and rice hulls. Potting Process (03:16): The process of up-potting the fig tree into the new container begins, with explanation on how to correctly position the tree in the container, and the optional practice of burying a portion of the trunk to encourage root growth. Soil Packing (03:49): Emphasis is placed on the importance of packing the soil firmly around the root ball to avoid air pockets, which could hinder tree health and growth. Adding Nutrients (04:24): The process continues with the addition of a half cup of slow-release fertilizer mix, including well-balanced NPK and micronutrients. Nutrient Details (04:52): The nutrient mix is discussed in more detail, highlighting the use of vermiculite, oyster shells, green sand, rock dust, gypsum, or lime as they provide micronutrients that fig trees particularly benefit from. Adding Mulch (06:01): The final step in the up-potting process is adding mulch, which helps with transplant shock, regulates soil temperature, and improves soil life. Tagging (06:34): The process concludes with the tagging of the pot for identification, ensuring successful tracking and care for the transplanted tree in the future.
