Graft, let the branch grow, then airlayer it . Now it’s on its own roots . This is what I do.

Exactly!

I only ripened a couple figs this year from my Nichadam Haven sourced from OTBP and it had delicious Adriatic flavor with some seed crunch too. Looking forward to more next year.

Interesting. The videos I have seen show the skins as lime green. These pictures are not even close. Maybe the growing location makes a big difference. As long as they taste good, it doesn't matter the color.

I noticed a difference in the figs in A-fig's video and NYCfiglover's video. In the A-fig video they look small and unimpressive but the NYCfiglover figs are huge with pools of honey. But the description at OTBP says "large fig" so maybe NYCfiglover's figs are a better representation. I think you are right though about location. Just pick a variety and do an image search and there is often pictures of them looking so different from one to the other. I guess location has a lot to do with it.

Yes location matters as I grow in 50% shade in a high tunnel. Younger trees are more closely spaced so they end up shading each other even more.
