Temperature

USDA recommended storage 32° F. (0° C.)

Approximate freezing point 30.5° F. (-0.8° C.)

For immediate shipments and well cured gar- lic some shippers have indicated that 60° to

65° F. temperatures with good ventilation and low humidity are satisfactory. In all cases, garlic should be stored and transported under the same temperatures from which it was received. Garlic coming out of cold storage is prone to sprouting at temperatures above 40° F. Garlic which has been held at the higher temperatures must be kept at low humidity to reduce the incidents of sprouting.
