Open one up & if they are pink in the middle & the fruit is soft they are ripe.
I have eaten green figs on holiday in Crete.

Hi Bubblewrap , I Have cut them open, they are a bit pink but still very hard
They are still quite milky and sticky. I take it there is little I can do with those

Paul,
Hubby does not know what a fresh fig looks like, when I asked him last year to let me know when they are ripe, I found out he had been waiting for them to go brown ( dried fig) so I never got to make jam last year either Bless him.

Beat him around the head with the bag of figs and tell it hurts less when they are ripe LOL
