(17,757 posts)A half hour West of Tallahassee. We are too far inland for the Gulf to modify the temps. I just, an hour ago, picked all of the remaining Meyer lemons, and tangerines but the poor trees are flowering so there goes the next crop. My Loquats are just beginning to form so the next few days will do them in. I have a bumper crop of Calamondins ripe on the two trees, but I don't have the energy to pick them. We have given up on peaches here, it just generally doesn't get cold enough for the buds to crystalize. We have four days of hard freeze lined up starting tonight. Mind you, mine is just a hobby orchard so there is not big financial loss, but I do enjoy growing fruit.
I just ate one of the grapefruit sized tangerines and it was delightful.
Tomorrow morning I may sound like this "sportscaster." https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/reporter-rants-boss-live-air-155939746.html
