How to Store and Preserve Fresh Peaches? Introduction to Three Practical Methods
Cold storage. Peaches are prone to chilling injury during low-temperature storage, and there is a risk of freezing at -1°C. Therefore, the suitable storage temperature for peaches is 0°C, and the suitable relative humidity is 90%-95%. Under these storage conditions, peaches can be stored for 3-4 weeks or longer. However, when peaches are stored at low temperatures for a long time, the flavor gradually becomes bland. Long-term low-temperature cold storage can cause chilling injury to the peaches, with the flesh turning brown. In particular, when the peaches are moved to a high-temperature environment for ripening, the flesh becomes dry, mealy, and soft, and the flesh around the pit turns noticeably brown. In the cold storage

How to store garlic? Three simple and practical methods to teach you
Garlic belongs to the Amaryllidaceae family (allium genus) and is a bulb vegetable of the onion-garlic category. By color, it is divided into white-skin garlic and purple-skin garlic. Garlic is cold-tolerant; it can be sown from February to April in early spring and harvested from June to July; when sown in autumn and overwintered in the open field, it is harvested from May to June the following year. After storage, it can be supplied to the market year-round. Storage characteristics: when the garlic scapes have been harvested for about 20 days, and about 1/2 or 2/3 of the leaves have turned yellow and the bulbs are fully swollen, this is the suitable harvest period for garlic bulbs. Irrigation should be stopped 3 to 5 days before harvest to reduce soil moisture and improve bulb quality and storability. Garlic has an obvious physiological

How to Store and Keep Sweet Potatoes Fresh? A Detailed Explanation of Practical Technical Points
I. Building the sweet potato cellar The cellar site should generally be chosen at a corner of the courtyard, with a cellar hole dug 3-5 m deep, the mouth of the hole about 80 cm in diameter, and at the bottom 2-3 storage chambers dug to the side, each 1.7 m high, 1.4 m wide and 3 m deep. If it is an old cellar, the loose soil on the cellar walls needs to be scraped off, and then a fungicide should be sprayed to prepare it for storing the sweet potatoes. II. Preparation before storage and harvesting techniques After Frost's Descent, it is time to harvest sweet potatoes. Harvest should be done on a clear, windless day, taking care to dig, handle and transport gently, and to prevent digging injuries as much as possible.

How to Keep Mutton Fresh: Practical Methods to Extend Its Shelf Life
Fresh mutton, especially a freshly slaughtered carcass, has a suitable temperature and is rich in nutrients, making it ideal for bacterial growth and reproduction. Particularly in hot weather and seasons, under natural conditions it will spoil and deteriorate within a few hours, and sometimes it even begins to discolor and spoil before it reaches the market or is sold out. Given this situation, freshly slaughtered mutton, whether for short-term storage or for slaughter-to-order sales, must be cooled or refrigerated promptly so that the meat temperature drops below 5°C in time, in order to reduce bacterial contamination and extend its shelf life.

Simple and Practical Methods for Preserving Edible Mushroom Spawn
While domesticating the wild-cultivated oyster mushroom variety "1015", we subjected the strains to salt-tolerance training. This involved salinizing ordinary PDA medium to prepare a solution at a concentration of 1.0%-1.5%, sterilizing it under high pressure for 45-60 minutes, cooling it to make slants, inoculating under sterile conditions, and culturing in an incubator. After the cultures matured, every 10 tubes were grouped together, placed in polyethylene bags, and stored at room temperature for 9 months before subculturing. The survival rate reached over 95%,

How to prevent mushroom spawn degeneration? Practical control methods
Spawn degeneration can lead to slow mycelial growth, weakened resistance to the environment, contaminant microorganisms and so on, an earlier or delayed fruiting body formation period, and indistinct flushes of mushrooms. There are many causes of spawn degeneration, among which impure spawn and gene mutation are the main reasons; in addition, excessively high temperatures and mixed cultivation of different strains can all cause spawn degeneration. Measures to prevent spawn degeneration include: ensuring pure culture of the spawn, taking care not to use spawn contaminated by foreign microorganisms, and not cultivating in close proximity connected to each other; strictly controlling the number of subcultures, reducing mechanical damage,

How Do You Assess the Quality of Edible Mushroom Spawn? Practical Methods to Help You Tell Good from Poor
The quality of edible mushroom spawn directly affects the success or failure of production and the level of yield. Therefore, assessing the quality of edible mushroom spawn is crucial for growers. 1. Direct visual observation and assessment. In appearance, if the mycelium is dense white, thick and strong, and elastic, it has strong vitality; if the spawn mycelium has shrunk, is dry and lacking in color, or the mycelium has autolyzed and produced a large amount of reddish-brown liquid, then its vitality has already weakened and it should no longer be used; if wood-block spawn remains hard and solid, it is spawn with strong vitality, but if the wood blocks have become softened and loose, then it has aged and is not
