Howdy all,
I fill refrigerators with apples every fall. By christmas things start to
soften and by february even the best keepers are mush. I figure that my
problem is ethylene buildup in the "sealed" fridge. The gas would, of
course, dissipate from a real root cellar.
Any of you figured out (or bought) a good ethylene scrubbing system? On
line I see that you can buy little sachets that are designed to be placed
in boxes of shipped flowers and such to prevent premature aging. They
don't seem like they would be practical for my purposes---too small,1,000
minimum purchase, no way to know how many to use, when to replace, etc.
Any ideas? I can't be the only one using fridges for storage. And I would
think that everyone who does has this problem. Thanks!
