Just DON’T put apples in your root cellar!

If the ventilation is done properly, and the different foods are packed well, apples can be stored in a root cellar without affecting the other foods. But the gas they emit does have to be kept in mind when designing and using it.

Thanks for that, I’ve heard it is possible, if one is careful about the age of apples, placement and such. I just don’t know enough to give a warning that would be coherent about it, lol. I’ve just been told not to do it as a general rule, put them in a barrel, or store them elsewhere. Maybe it’s something to look into. (Looking for another copy of “Back to Basics”...)
