Fresh-air supply is not required for this storage technology.
Optimal Temperature (t°C)
Maintain a stable storage temperature between –1°C and +1°C to preserve firmness and reduce decay.
Humidity
Relative humidity should be kept at 95% to minimize moisture loss and leaf dehydration.
CO₂ Levels
Excess carbon dioxide must be regularly removed.
Maximum allowable CO₂ concentration: ≤ 5%.
Storage Life
-
Year-round storage when using refrigeration systems.
-
Until April when using an aeration (active ventilation) system.
