I entertained a couple friends last night and squeezed 12 ounce of juice from my Costco bag. Most of those limes were yielding just .5-.75 oz each and I used over half the bag. Figure the whole $5 bag will make about 20 ounce of juice, so I'm roughly getting 4 ounces per dollar. Definitely the best bang for the buck as of late.

We planted one 3 years ago and it hasn't given us a single fruit. Will check to see if there's a thread here already. If not, you should start one cuz your home grown limes look yummy.
