How to pick fruits from your mandarine, tangerine and orange tree ;) with pit bull Sharky's help. It's December 1st and I am picking fruits off my trees... Wow, apples and other fruits are ready in Estonia usually in July, August, September ... but in Texas we have Winter fruit in December on trees - and Here I come...
This video is to show all that to my family and friends in Estonia. And Sharky was there somewhere tooo :P

I love to eat fruits and sometimes after the dinner - being full I can still fit some fruits in there somewhere - always...

When Should I Pick Oranges Off the Tree?
Unlike a plum or a pear, oranges will not ripen after they've been picked. They will never become sweeter or juicier with time. They will, however, continue to ripen and sweeten if left on the tree throughout the harvest season. The only way to truly know when an orange is ready for picking is to pluck one from a branch, peel it and taste it. Oranges ripen slowly, so there is no need to hurry to harvest them all at once, unless a severe frost is predicted. Begin picking fruit from lower branches, since mild to moderate freezes can damage those oranges first. Later on, pick oranges from higher up on the tree. Once picked, oranges will last longer in the fridge--about two to three weeks. Those left at room temperature will last about a week or so. Over-ripe oranges left on the tree will wither and drop to the ground. Never pick oranges with broken skin, as these will decay faster in storage, and, like one bad apple, may spread fungus to other oranges.
