Green Oranges typically turn orange as they ripen, which is influenced by temperature and other environmental factors. In general, temperatures between 60°F and 75°F (15°C to 24°C) encourage the ripening process. When exposed to cooler temperatures, the chlorophyll in the skin breaks down, allowing the orange pigment (carotenoids) to become more prominent. However, the specific temperature can vary depending on the variety of the orange and local growing conditions.
