What time of year is the best to prune my grapefruit tree? It is well
established and producing a lot of fruit. I am in the central valey of
California.



Any time, except that if you prune it very much it can't handle as
much water and may get root rot.

In So Cal they don't prune the lemons until after freezing season is
over, the tall branches give some frost protection.
