Storage Guidelines

Commercial storage guidance for angled luffa (Chinese okra, Luffa acutangula), immature fruit. Storage life depends on initial quality, maturity, cultivar and handling; this is not a household shelf-life guarantee.

Luffa is chilling sensitive, loses green color when exposed to ethylene, and damaged ribs lead to water loss and decay, so handle carefully and avoid top-icing. Source: USDA Agriculture Handbook 66 (rev. 2016).
