saddad, I have a couple of figs on a young tree that are ripening well,

they are brown and soft but at the base and stalk they are still a bit green.

Do I wait for the whole fruit to brown before picking ?

Many thanks,

No they should be fine today... on mine the stalk never goes brown... it never gets chance, but I don't think it would if I left them... :-\
