A real fig fanatic at work

I am sharing a quick photo update. Yesterday and today, I put 10 new trees in the ground using the sunken pot method, all of which had a great head start inside my grow room. I can't wait to see how they take off this season.
Four of my favorite varieties -including two loaded BMKK- are now situated right along our south-facing natural stone wall, which creates a really lovely, sheltered microclimate. It’s the perfect spot giving them 10 to 12 hours of direct sunlight every single day.
I’ve also included a few photos of some of the trees I put in the ground last year (two Florea and one Marseille Black VS). They've already pushed out some great new growth!
I’m really looking forward to seeing how everything progresses this year.
All that work is AMAZING! You and your helper I see in the photos worked really hard. Your photos reminded me of my father in law God rest his soul. He enjoyed thrived doing that kind of work. You deserve 10 stars. May your trees bless you with a plethora of figs. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

And a few more… also, In case someone is familiar with Weeping Mulberry… It was planted last year, and the main trunk and lower branches survived the winter.
However, I am currently seeing a few buds breaking along the upper half of the trunk, but absolutely nothing near the top yet.
Quick question: Wondering if I should head the top to encourage growth?
