6 2008-12-09T09:32:20-05:00 false Mostly I'm picking lemons up as they drop off the tree, since I'm pretty bad at deciding which ones on the tree are ripe. I cut them open and if they show signs of fruit fly they go in the bin, but if they're OK (most of them are), I cut them into wedges and freeze them. They're very small lemons, which I imagine is because I didn't thin the fruit out at all. The flesh is quite juicy and they have extremely thick piths. They're perfectly and fabulously sour. The trees have loads of very small fruits still developing and I'm wondering if there's any way or reason to thin that fruit out so that some of it might grow larger- can any citrus experts suggest either way? I'm not sure how one would go about thinning fruit when there's a crop already ripening to harvest-stage on the tree.
