It holds more than you imagine and no drips.
Works for seedlings under domes too.

Interesting. Most fig-growers I know let their plants go dormant in winter. Do yours go dormant in the sunny window? Cuttings I root year round but once established and they drop their leaves drop in late fall, the potted trees go in my garage in the dark and the in-ground trees get covered up....
I've found the best resources on fig growing at ourfigs.com and figs4fun.com
