🔍 When is it ripe?
Bitter orange: Turns fully orange when ripe. Flesh is very sour and seedy — not for fresh eating. Excellent for marmalade, liqueur (Cointreau), and fragrant peel. Harvest when colour is deep orange.
Fig: Hangs heavily and droops at the neck; skin softens and may split. A sweet drop of nectar at the base eye and the absence of white sap at the stem confirm ripeness. Pick with a gentle twist.
