great info... I live in florida and have a ruby red grapefruit,a blood orange tree, and a common navel orange tree. I always have tons that i cant use believe me it might sound ridicules but eating it in everything on everything and juicing it and freezing it it still is just to much. i give away but seems like its the same if you have a reg size tree and its a good year you have more then you can use.
i have a piece of advice for anyone buying a tree to plant DONT SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A LARGE TREE i got a orange tree about 5 ft tall next year i got a grapefruit tree about 6 ft tall and that year my parents got me a blood orange tree 1 1/2 ft tall all planted the same way all feed and watered the same way and let me post pics of the three
,
the trees are in a row the first pic has a full shot of grapefruit on left blood on right, the left pic the blood orange on left and navel on right with in 3 years the blood tree was bigger then the other trees.
here is this years crop almost ready for navel
the blood take longer and cold nights to change to red inside but looks like a big crop
i used to ship to family but its not worth it to much $$
