Default emperor mandarin

I have an emperor mandarin, it's only a year old, and it has a few fruits on
it. The problem is, I don't know when to actually pick the fruit. They're
all orange already but they feel quite firm, I think they usually have loose
skin.

Anybody have any ideas, or could anyone point me in the right direction.

Thanks
Jen

g'day jen,

we pick ours when they come of the tree easily but i would suggest all
citrus should be just about ripe by now and ready to pick, the
looseness of the skin can vary a little. at best pick one and try it.

my web addy has changed

With peace and brightest of blessings,

len
