Most hated fig

Have you grown and tried both?
No, I grow neither. I have tried them though. I'm saying that they are the same based on experience of other members. They are too small of a fig to my liking. I don't think the taste is good enough to warrant a spot in my climate. For early varieties, I have grafts of RdB, Green Michurinska, Campaniere, and Pastiliere, which I rate excellent taste-wise.
I'm transitioning away from growing in pots. Since I have small space, I have to be very selective of what I plant in the ground.

I've grown Brandon Street unk and it was same as Teramo unk. I bought a fig from Tractor Supply that ended up being the same as the 2 mentioned. Apparently this fig gets around! If BSC and Nebo are same then we know, based on the rename game timeline, in a year or 2 it will again resurface as a recycled fig and a new name. It happens too often, but too bad it's not a meatier more substantial fig. Mine were all so tiny I culled it. I need biomass in my belly! This ain't tapas :)

I have BSC and Teramo and in my opinion they are not the same. Other growers that have fruited both say they are different. One definite different is the seed crunch in BSC. Zoom in and you can see the seeds

Teramo and Nebo are supposed to be the same
