OK so I'm by no means an expert on this, but....
I have found a pretty sure fire way to pick the juiciest limes (Persians). There is a Mexican market on the corner near me and they carry the larger Persians and little bity green limes...they actually look darker than Key limes, but they may be. Anyway, I have found that if you pick a lime that looks swollen they tend to be ripe and full of juice. Limes have, what look to me like pores. If a lime is very dark green and the pores are deep--it will be less juicy. A lime that is starting to turn yellow and the pores are shallow--the lime looks swollen, those tend to be quite juicy. I hope this makes sense.
