Recomendaciones de conservación

Commercial storage guidance for dragon fruit (red-skinned Hylocereus spp., white- or red-fleshed). Storage life depends on initial quality, maturity, cultivar and handling; this is not a household shelf-life guarantee.

Temperatura

10°C (50°F)

Vida útil

up to 14 days

Embalaje

Breathable packaging, preferably with ventilation holes to prevent moisture buildup

Colder storage causes chilling injury (flesh translucency, softening, scale darkening, poor flavor) that shows after warming, especially in less mature fruit; mechanical injury and water loss are the other main problems. Source: USDA Agriculture Handbook 66 (rev. 2016).
