That’s always a promising sign. Do you head start any of your trees?

No actually I pulled them out a week or two late.

Excellent, GM is a nice fig from what I read.  I already have JHA, but if I did not I would want  the earlier GM.

It's a few weeks earlier than AJH. GM is not an adriatic like AJH or WM#1 it's in a category by itself. What makes it a keeper is that it's early. Resistance to splitting is yet to be determined.
 
This is the first year I've gotten some very nice GM's. In past years it's been a bad splitter and I was actually thinking of culling it after this year. But this year has been dry for the most part and the figs have been excellent.
 
I absolutely love this fig. It definitely took a long time for the tree to develop to fruiting maturity for me... almost as long as U. Proscuitto. Years. But worth the wait...
 
@"JMF75"#5 those pictures look like photogenic fig p*** to me. I want to nibble on those beautiful Green Michurinska figs. Then eat them. Congratulations on growing such a productive GM fig tree.

Thank you, yah I don't need a possible splitter...another thing is people report seed crunch, and that is a matter of personal taste, not exactly my favorite. but others rave about that kind of thing... whereas Adriatic JH is a bit on the later side, it still does well in many climates and eventually gets that complex strawberry / fig flavor I am very very fond of.

I have been growing GM for several years and have had no issues with splitting.
We may just be the rain capitol of the world aside from the rain forest itself. lol

That is good to hear...sometimes when a tree known for NOT splitting is you go and put it in ground under different conditions...well it splits.. had the same thing happen with Scott's Yellow in FL ( splitting), but it was young, in South Africa SY does not split, or at least has not yet in 6 years.
 
@"JMF75"#5 mine is in ground

@"Lewi"#16 SY split bad for me here.
Didn't take long to chuck that one.
