flyboyFL: The main crop figs haven't even begun to form on my tree and won't start until late this month so I wouldn't worry about yours having no fruit yet. Mine has 11 figs that formed as the tree just started to leaf out and they will be ripe this month but are a second "early" crop that forms some years while other years nothing. I think the more drastically you prune the tree in the fall, the less chance you have of getting an early crop. Here's a pic of my tree taken today. By August the tree will be twice this size and hopefully loaded with hundreds of figs as last year. I've treated the tree once with Messenger over Memorial Day and plan on treating it every three weeks through the season.
