1, put an apple in the bag for storing potatoes, and then tie the bag tightly. This is because apples emit something called "ethylene gas" which can slow down the "development" of potatoes. It's that simple!

2. Tie it with a fresh-keeping bag and isolate it from the air, which can prevent it from drying, rotting and sprouting.

3, potatoes are afraid of freezing and should be placed in cartons, away from cold places.

Ordinary families should do the following "six taboos" when storing potatoes:

1, avoid water: 7 days before harvesting, stop watering to reduce water content, promote potato skin aging, facilitate early dormancy and reduce diseases.

2, to avoid exposure: some people in order to sun-tan, the result is that cold fruits go bad and moldy or potato skins turn green and can not be eaten. The correct way is to dry it in a cool and ventilated place. Finally, potatoes should be packed in ventilation bags and kept in a dry place.

3, avoid humidity: potatoes are fresh vegetables, humidity is too high, poor ventilation will be moldy. It should be placed in the sand in the corner.

4. Avoid high temperature: if the temperature is too high, potatoes will germinate or rot; if the temperature is too low, potatoes will be easily frostbitten and inedible. Therefore, don't pile potatoes in piles, let them breathe, and pay attention to strict selection before storage to remove sick, rotten, injured, pitted and wet bad potato pieces.

5, avoid mixing: generally other fresh vegetables are easy to mold, potatoes should not be put together with these dishes.

6, avoid sweet potato (sweet potato): potatoes can not be stored with sweet potatoes. Otherwise, either the sweet potato is stiff or the potato is sprouting.
