Fig Tree Growth

Question

I have two fig trees, one is about 4 years old and the other is about 3 years old. Every year they both produce some fruit but not as much as in previous years. My main concern is that they are not getting any larger and are about the same size as when orginally planted. Shouldn’t they be much larger by now? What’s wrong?

Answer 1

This sounds like a nutrient issue. Have the soil tested to find out what the soil is missing. If you do not fertilize regularly, go ahead and give the trees a balanced fertilizer.
