I have this in my 9A garden. Makes fruit by April or May.
This year, a few lemons ripened over the rainy summer. Fruit can be harvested while green, as early as August if summer is rainy. Early green lemons will be either small or medium, and will be juicy and tart. Since the tree makes such an enormous amount of fruit, those harvested from August to November will scarcely be missed. Fruit turns yellow in November.
How can you tell when the lemon is ready for picking?
and after picking, can you just clean and use/eat?
I have a 1 yr old tree in a planter (size: 20" h x 16" w)
I have 2 larger (mostly) yellow lemons and 4 smaller green ones.
I was given this plant as a gift - no instructions!
I can send a photo if necessary...
