I agree with what others have said here. I think you'll be surprised how it will respond to a repot and regular feedings!

And I just want to say that I love how supportive/helpful/encouraging this community is. It would have been easy for someone to just say,
'chop it and stick it in a grow pot for two years'
Instead you get some great responses like Shibui's on this thread! :tu:

Should I wait until spring to prune, root prune and repot?
Figs respond best to pruning and repotting in warmer weather. Check with local Sydney growers but down here we wait until December or January to repot. The warmer the weather the better they do afterwards.
