First time breba figs--will they ripen?

girlbug2
13 years ago

Main crop figs on my Black Jack tree have never had problems ripening at the end of August, when temps are in the 80s and 90s. But May and June is usually in the high 60s and 70s. Will that be hot enough for my nine precious brebas to ripen?
