Do you store kale or other leafy greens in them? If so, how long do they stay fresh until they start to wilt?

Yes, I store all my lettuce in them. I either roll individual leaves in paper towels that are a little wet, or make sure the bag is damp. Romaine will last 2 weeks this way.

I don't store veggies in them. I just use them at the grocery for transporting.

I have used these bags for all sorts of things, including kale and leafy greens. My experience is that things like kale and leafy greens don't do as well, as they need something something more airtight to stay fresh. They can begin to wilt after a day or so. Things like apples, citrus, potatoes, onions, etc are great in these bags.

I have not used them for storage. I used them shopping at farmer's market then transfer to those green bags for storage.

Yes i do and because they contine to breath they last longer then in a plastic bag.

I don't store any veggies in them. I usually transfer my leafy greens to reusable containers that I keep in the fridge.

I only have the small ones and use them specifically for transporting bulk nuts and figs from the grocery store.

we kept ours in the kitchen.. the first batch took a bit longer because we discovered we did not soak it enough. The second batch only took less than a week. Honestly, we didnt eat them, I procrastinated and didn't pick them soon enough and they wilted. As soon as they grow you almost have to eat them.

Absolutely, they will stay fresh as long as the container isn't opened or damaged. Suggest maybe a tin can to shop in. They are great for long term storage also.

I keep mine in the fridge too. I guess you could try freezing a few and see how they turn out. They keep well in the fridge though.

I store them in the pantry. I have never had a problem since they are dehydrated and will keep a very long time.

The more moisture you can remove and better ventilation you give them, the longer they will last.That is why I use a salad spinner to rinse and store, giving them a good spritz and spin daily.

Wouldn't know because we use them up quickly. But since they are dry to begin with, as long as you keep them dry, I would suspect that they would last for years and years. The are designed to remain moist when you plant the seeds and water them. I'd have no problem with storing the unused ones.

i haven't used my bags yet. next month i will try to fill them. if you go to you tube and find john kohler growing your greens it shows him filling one. he mixes his soil with other items so your soil will not be so heavy and it can drain better. let me know how it works. good luck

Oh, they stay plump for quite awhile, as long as you store them properly. I keep mine in an airtight vessel and they last for months with with extremely little shrinkage/dehydration. You mmust buy these beans! They are absolutely wonderful and the best price around; you get so many in one shipment. Even when you open the box, you'll be so happy because that fragrant vanilla (sealed in a bag) permeates through!

Leafy greens are juiced, but the quantity of juice is small. I like to bunch the kale so that the bunch meets the shredding blade. Otherwise, the kale parts break away without getting juiced.

Very long, I had mine for almost a year and I just made them 2 weeks ago and they were perfect. As long as you keep them in a cool dry pantry.

Not real good, you could wrap it up with another veggie, or tie it in a knot, when I do items like kale and other leafy items I either roll them up or tie them in knots with themselves to give it bulk, or wrap it around some other veggie like a carrot or something with more substance.

Great question! Greens never last that long in my house. I emailed our product coach and will respond with an answer as soon as I have one. How long has yours been opened?

i think you can save them for as long as you want based on the packaging. Each vegetableis in it own package designed for freshness.

I don't have a answer. Our sprouts are generally eaten within three days so they don't have a chance to wilt.
