Hi.
We are growing basil for our on-farm market and having trouble with it holding up.
How do y'all store and package basil without it getting dark green/brown (from too cold of temps I think) and how do you package it to keep it form wilting and/or getting slimy?
I have tried it in loose in large bags, and loose in peck boxes, kept in the walk-in and it gets dark green/brown.
On the counter, it is tightly packed in zip bags which are left partially open to breathe and it creates moisture.
Any and all thoughts will be greatly appreciated.
