stored apples and a mystery
brian mitchell writes
I had the same weather conditions and mine don't seem to be keeping as
well as normal. Where do you store yours? And as you're obviously
knowledgeable about apples, do you have the solution to my mystery?
I store mine in the cellar - cool and slightly damp.
In what way are yours not keeping? Are they rotting or shrivelling? I
don't have your original post any more, but IIRC you had a variety that
were supposed to keep till March or later that were already spoilt.
When did you pick them? I think (but may be completely wrong) that
keeping them on the tree as long as possible may help.
