Works good in our dry environment. And it's not too dark in the garage.
Saw a note about not storing root veggies in the fridge as the cold and dark
mimics late winter and encourages sprouting.
And being mostly a barbarian who don't dress up too much innymore, I have
to buy new knee high nylon stockings. Lots of practical applications, I'm
sure...
