Squeeze the limes in your palm. Limes are ready to pick when they give slightly under gentle pressure. A lime that is still hard is not yet ripe and won't be juicy. Pick one lime, cut into it and sample its fruit. If the lime feels heavy for its size and the fruit inside tastes fresh and acidic, it is ready to be eaten.
Choose a time for lime application. You can spread lime any time, but you generally get the best results if you do it as you prepare the soil for planting. 1  Lime can be applied to established lawns at any time. 2  The best times are fall, winter and early spring.
