Brown Turkey Fig Gardening in Hua Hin: Seasons, Pruning & Propagation
Executive Summary Want to grow your own delicious figs (มะเดื่อ - Ma-Duea) in Hua Hin's tropical climate? The Brown Turkey fig is a perfect choice. This self-pollinating tree thrives in our warm weather and rewards you with two generous harvests each year—in late spring/early summer and again from late summer into fall. To grow them organically, plant in full sun with well-draining, compost-rich soil. Water deeply weekly, allowing the soil to dry out between sessions. Propagation is easy and fun: try traditional hardwood cuttings in late winter or experiment with faster air layering , which works great in our humidity. Prune in late winter by removing dead branches and shaping an "open vase" form to boost airflow and fruit production. Enjoy the sweet, soft fruit fresh, in salads, or as delicious homemade jam. It's a rewarding tree that adds sustainable abundance to any Hua Hin garden. 🌱 Garden Tips from Hua Hin: Organic Cultivation of Brown Turkey Fig (มะเดื่อ...
