Enderud

Looking for info or experience with Enderud. I have 7-8 figs getting quite large and expect some pollen if I’m lucky. How does one tell when a caprifig is ripe and is Enderud know for larger figs?

 

[GoodFriendMike]

Enderud like most Capri and most female figs will soften and sag when ripe.
Those will lighten up in color a lot by the time they are ripe.

Went and took a couple of photos real quick of FPTC.
Enderud will lighten up instead of darken but the idea is the same.
The profichi will change color become very soft and sag.
Kinda like a female fig. You can see the difference in the fig stems

Nice well I’ll have to keep this thread up to date as they ripen. Of all my capris Enderud set and held the most besides ucd #1

This is interesting for me, all of my Caprifigs here are mature when they are very firm, once they drop, wasps will have already left, and the figs dry up. These Caprifigs are mature, and will have wasps issuing over the next few days.

The profichi crop softens when ripe here. Even with wasp. Mamme does as you mention.

It's strange isn't it, all of ours are firm, to very hard, just as the picture shows. These Profichi are ready to send interstate to a friend.

That is strange.

My Enderud has set a promising amount of profichi too. Fingers crossed I can begin experimenting with hand pollination this season.

I am loving this and hope to see some hand pollinated figs soon.

I had some Enderud profichi ripen Wednesday. They turn a light yellow green when ripe. The ones that ripened further than others were edible and sweet. I cut out the buttons that are filled with pollen and mt dog and I ate the tops

Nice! Just what I was looking for, some ripe fruit pictures. Thank you!!

Here’s some Enderub. The lowest one is a few days from dead ripe.
