🌷 Behind the scenes at Onings: the ethylene meter in action.
We're in the middle of tulip processing season, with our cold stores running at full capacity. To keep a close eye on bulb quality, we use our new ethylene meter every day. In this video, our colleague Niels shows how it works: he wheels the mobile measuring unit into the storage cell and starts the reading.
What does it do? It continuously measures the concentration of ethylene gas in the cell. This gas is released by diseased or 'sour' bulbs and can damage healthy bulbs even at very low concentrations (from just 100 ppb), causing flower bud blasting or excessive splitting. As soon as the meter picks up a rise, we increase ventilation to stop further ethylene build-up.
This way we keep a close watch on the harvest and can act immediately if 'sour disease' breaks out. What gets measured, gets managed
— and it helps us prevent damage, for the best possible quality of our tulip bulbs.
