Dried lime outcome

I previously detailed my experiments in preserving lemons and drying limes. I have further news on the dried lime front. I had said that they all went bad, but that was not quite true. Two of them seemed to dry out and not rot. I supplemented that with some Mexican limes I got from the local carniceria, and they dried out fairly quickly when I put them on my balcony in the sun. One Mexican lime I left behind became hardened. I wonder if that is another form a drying. At any rate, here's a picture of what I have right now. I'm going to contact my friend Farhang to see if these limes look like the dried limes he knows. Or perhaps they need to further dry somehow, although I'm not sure if that is possible.
