Why must potatoes and sweet potatoes be stored in separate cellars?
Although sweet potatoes and potatoes are both tuber crops, they are indeed different. Their growing conditions and the suitable temperatures for storing their tubers are clearly different. When storing sweet potatoes, in order to prevent black spot disease, soft rot and other diseases from invading the tubers, the cellar temperature is generally first raised to 34°C-37°C with a relative humidity of around 85%, and kept there for about 4 days, so that the wounds caused to the tubers during digging can heal as quickly as possible and infection can be prevented; in production this is called high-temperature healing. After that, the cellar temperature is generally kept at 10°C-15°C with a relative humidity of
