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.
All plants have a time when they rest or go dormant. For deciduous trees, it is when they lose their leaves during the winter. Most evergreen plants, like citrus, also rest during the times of cooler temperatures, resuming growth and development when the temperatures begin to rise in the spring.The absolutely best time to do heavy pruning is during the coldest months.Should I prune my citrus trees this winter?â My immediate answer to that question is always: âWhy?â Unlike deciduous fruit trees such as peaches, apricots and apples, citrus do not need to be pruned each year. In fact, they do better without it.
