SignUp Now!How many orange trees do you own? Do you live in Fla. Tx., or CA?Here's what I need to do. Just make it harder to get to my orange tree. Hmmmmmm.
Just one tree, but I get three good sized crops a year from it. Everyone says that I've got the sweetest oranges they've ever tasted. People and critters come from miles away to get them.How many orange trees do you own? Do you live in Fla. Tx., or CA?

I have a 10 acre grove in Fla. Hamlin oranges. Gets more expensive to care for the grove every year, with canker and greening diseases. I hope that doesn't affect your tree.
I only get one crop a year. They pick between December and March depending on the pickers' schedule and how sweet the oranges are. The more sugar content, the more valuable the oranges are. Did you know oranges have something in common with cars? Ever hear of a refractometer? They use it to measure the sugar content, called "brix". It can also be used to check the coolant content in our cars, only a different scale is used. You can search on ebay for them. If you were going to change your coolant over to Evans, you would use a refractometer to check the percentage of antifreeze in your solution. Evans says you must have 3% or less iirc before you add the Evans stuff. In other words, Evans and Prestone do not mix.Just one tree, but I get three good sized crops a year from it.
There's also one you can use to measure the alky content in wine Rick.Did you know oranges have something in common with cars? Ever hear of a refractometer?
