What a sickly looking fig. Well here's my say for what it's worth. Have you
got drainage in the pot? The compost looks a bit feeble, perhaps some soil
in place of compost. Have you got a dud variety? Sorry that's all I casn
think of. Ours grows in a raised brick surrounded bed against a stone wall
and is covered in fruit. Perhaps you should start with another plant
