For the trans, use ";bring forth,"; ";produce,"; see Preisigke 6648.1 εἰμεὶ ἐγὼ Ἰησοῦς, ὁ φὺς δὲ Φαμεῖς, παροδεῖτα, where the editor understands ὃν φῦσε Φαμεῖς or ὁ φύσ (ας) Φ.; cf. Luk. 8:6; Luk. 8:8, and note the new 2 aor. pass, ἐφύην in place of the intrans. act. ἔφυν (cf. Blass-Debrunner § 76. 2).
The subst. φυτόν is very common, e.g. PSI VI. 568.3 (B.C. 253–2?) φυτὰ παντοδαπά, BGU II. 530.31 (i/A.D.) (= Selections, p. 62) ἐπὶ κινδυνεύει τὰ φυτὰ διαφωνῆσαι, ";otherwise there is a risk that the plants perish,"; P Fay 111.25 (A.D. 95–6) (= Selections, p. 67) τὼν (l. τὸν) στίχον τον φυτον (l. τῶν φυτῶν) τῶν ἐν τῷ προφήτῃ πότισον, ";water the row of trees in ‘the prophet’"; (apparently the name of a piece of land), P Ryl II. 99.5 (iii/A.D.) ὑδρεύματα καὶ φυτά, ";irrigators and trees,"; and P Hamb I. 23.19 (A.D. 569) σὺν φυτοῖς παντοίοις ἐγκάρποις τε καὶ ἀκάρποις. See also φυή in such passages as BGU III. 708.4 (A.D. 164–5) ἀπέχ [ο ]μεν πα [ρά σου τιμ ]ὴν χόρτου φυῆς [τοῦ ἐνεστ ]ῶτος ε ̄ (ἔτους).
