Packaging

Breathable materials, possibly non-waxed boxes or bins, to prevent moisture accumulation. Pre-cooling before storage is necessary.

Storage Notes: Store just above freezing at very high humidity with loose leaves trimmed for air circulation, keep away from ethylene, and do not go colder than recommended because it can freeze-damage the outer leaves. Sensitive to ethylene: keep away from ethylene-producing fruit. Highest freezing point: -0.83°C. Source: USDA Agriculture Handbook 66 (rev. 2016).
