One sprout can make a potato unmarketable.
In efforts to minimize sprouting in root and tuber vegetables, growers are challenged to find organic, long-term storage solutions that maintain the health of their crop, without sending sugar levels too high.
Hazel Root, one of Hazel's latest products in development, intends to serve as an organic answer to anti-sprouting pesticides like CIPC, and extend the length of time root vegetables remain sprout-free during storage and transit. Just toss a sachet of Hazel Root into the box.
