hey guys i posted in oct 2011 about a few trees i acquired one being a very tall straight fig i found on the side of the road with no pot haha but i soaked it let it recover it was 1m at the time so then chopped it down to about 500mm i probably should have cut it shorter but i thought i would leave it a touch on the conservative side and not restrict my self later on. so here it is 8 months later and cant quite decide on the hight to do my next chop any advice would be very much appreciated and is it too close to winter to do a chop?

Matty you'd be best off leaving any work on you ficus till the warmer weather arrives in mid-spring.

yes agree...
wait till spring.......cut above lowest shoot.
cheers

I have this ones identical twin ...I was contemplating an air layer on it rather than chopping ,what is the best time to start an air layer on one of these ? (we live in Q'ld )
