Need help🫤....effing title too short 😡🤬😡

A few days ago I got given a whole bunch of fresh lemons off a friends tree.
I put them straight into my fruit bowl .

It's only been like 5...6 days - and they've gone mouldy !

The apples and the limes I have in there, (and were there first ), haven't .

So my questions are :
1. Do I have to wary be now of my other fruit doing the same ?
2. If so, how do I stop that ?
3. And why did the lemons get moldy in the first place ?

Anybody?🤷

What's the temp like in Devil's land ?

The peel of a lemon, in particular, is susceptible to mold development when exposed to excessive humidity. This is why it’s essential to store lemons in a dry environment to prevent moisture from accumulating on the surface.

Apparently we even topped Brissy the other day .
I hate it 😞

@C11111111111111 Gotta love our blue skies .. so beautiful 🤩
Went up to Westbury the other day, and although the day was hot, under the trees at salmond ponds it was really nice.

Ooh, and look what I bought ...

It's such a lovely taste. The chocolate kind of rounds out the sharpness and tang of the raspberries and makes it a really smooth flavour🤗
