Subject: [NAFEX] Alternate use for best keeping apples

I have read that different varieties give off this ethylene gas at
different rates, and if I recall it is proportional to the rate of "decay"
(changing sugars to starches?). So Jim, do you use a long storing, medium
storing or short term storage apple to prevent your potatos from sprouting?
Or do you notice no difference?
Thanks for the info on the Parkland and Irish Peach.
