fig tree

I have a black mission fig and they are purple when fully ripe. (Yours is not a black mission)

The others are correct, they will get large and soft and will be easy to pull off the tree.

I have no idea what type fig tree I have. My figs are still green when they are ripe. You just check the bigger green ones by feel.

Here is some info I came across pertaining to figs that remain green (and greenish) when ripe.

Conadria figs -- In San Diego, they are ripe about one day after the are completely split.
Pick one and try it. If it is not to your liking, pick the next one about one or two days after it reaches the condition in which the first one was when you picked it.
Brunswick is ripe 36 hours after it starts to swell. Osborn takes a week after that point. My first Blue Giant took three weeks to ripen after showing first color (and then wasn't any better than a poor Brown
Turkey​
). You will have to experiment with you soil, climate, etc. to see what are the correct signs of ripeness.​
​

There was another one mentioned, the Kadota but this one appears a very yellow color when ripe.
