    for those of you that drink orange juice, (sunnydelite for instance) what exactly is the difference between FLorida and the California kind.

    I am drinking the Florida kind right now, it seems a tad bit darker than the Caliornia kind. I can tell there is a big difference. is it me or is there really a difference?

    That stuff is not OJ, like kitty said. It's not even good with my vodka. Yes, the OJ is different, but not so much that you can notice. If you had a fresh orange from each state and tasted them, you could tell. After they go to the plant and get processed it kills the flavor. When I'm in central FL, I love to pull oranges off my uncles tree for fresh OJ.

    so if I take an orange ( valencia orange, for the sake of disscussion), split it open, remove two seeds, grow one in Florida and one in California, they will taste difeerent when the fruit is juiced?

    Everyone knows that California orange juice is better. As is California cheese. It is just the way that the world works.

    Yes, it does.

    Unfortunately I am not everything good because I came from Oregon.

    The taste depends on a lot of things. Genetics, Enviroment and how the grower Grew them. Like for instance, depriving your hemp plant of Nitrogen in the last two weeks of flowering would reduce the chemical taste, if you were growing in hydro.

    As peace said its all about the way you grow it and where. FL is very hot, humid, and it rains every day all summer.

    I've not been to the west coast, but I hear its hot, dry, and you don't get a lot of rain.

    So, the environment plays a big part in the taste you get in the end.

    I would also say the amount of bug spray your oranges get hit with might change the taste, lol.
