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.
Watering. Lime trees need consistent moisture to grow well. Water the soil deeply once or twice a week, rather than frequent shallow watering. When the soil is dry to about 6 inches, water the lime tree. Do not let the lime tree dry out, since the leaves will wilt and drop.Overwatering symptoms include yellowing and cupping leaves. The drooping leaves do not perk up after watering. In this case, let the soil dry out a while before watering again.ater the soil deeply once or twice a week, rather than frequent shallow watering.
