Summary
Fruit held at 2 deg C remained hard green during four weeks, and ripened normally upon removal to 22 deg C. At the two higher temperatures (5 and 8 deg C) fruit ripening started during storage. Results indicate that fruit held at 2 deg C can be stored for at least four weeks, and possibly five weeks without injury.
