What does it look like to collect 117 new varieties in 6 months?

It's madness, I tell you. MADNESS.

It's also a lot of fun. I love spreadsheets and organizing figs.

@Dbox at least you’re not alone

Woah.... these days 300 bucks won't get you a single Mehdi's Famous Fig cutting....

Do you work?

 

[figologist]

Do you work?

Yep! I'm just super efficient at work too and get home by 430 at the latest. I don't take a lunch ever. Just work from 8-4 M, W, F and then do surgery Thursday mornings and that's it. THE REST IS FOR THE FIGS.

Over the past 2 years I have accumulated 231 varieties and over presently over 450 trees all in pots, along with 500+ seedlings started. About 80 of the potted trees are air layers that I have offered to other growing friends in hopes to feed their addiction a little more....... Money wise? I haven't really kept track (Im sure my wife could tell me), but I'd guess in the $1000 range, not including soil and fertilizers. I have at least 3 varieties off the top of my head that I will get rid of this year as they just aren't my favorite, so that will reduce my inventory greatly......
