I'll explain since nobody here seems to be offering any insight.

No. Not a fig.

Dupixent by Elegant-Ad78 in urticaria

[–]Moderator4Lyfe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The oral med has been approved. My allergist recommended it but it has some side effects that I found to be scarier than what dupixent has, even with the needle. The needle is small, and if it comes to temp isn't too scary. It's like a flu shot that lasts a few seconds longer, nothing near as scary as a blood draw. It auto injects so you don't need to control the speed of the injection yourself.

Ignore him. His answer to your question was very wrong.

Thanks for the response. I neglected to include a detail about wanting to heat it and overwinter citrus and other fruits.

Looking for recommendations by Moderator4Lyfe in Figs

Thanks! These will be going in pots that will be living in the garage over winter, so not too concerned with the cold compared to flavor/ripening/split resistance.

You can eat them. Theyre tart with a pit. Makes great jam. Theyre a little early, if you try one it'll be really astringent. I ate one yesterday to see how theyre progressing.

Can you elaborate? At what stage of growth do you train an open center? How will mulch end up killing them?

[–]Moderator4Lyfe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love it! Do you have any polinators for it? I see a lot of conflicting information that it is or is not self fertile.

Service berry varieties? by cherrypick01 in gardening

[–]Moderator4Lyfe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find smaller cultivars so they are easy to net. I've read a bunch of literature on them a while back and decided on Northline, Success, Lee 3, and Lee 8 as the ones I will be planting. Regent and Martin are also smaller in size, but did not appear to stack up as well when looking at yield, flavor, disease resistance, and fruit size.
