Hi Cid,

Glad you asked this question. I have stored beet pulp over
the winter in my cool, dry basement with no problems, dry
being important with mold being the big issue.

I purchased a bag this spring and plopped it into a metal
garbage can in my barn expecting to use it shortly when my
plans changed. Was going through the cans the other day
and found the bag which I forgot about. We have had a
fairly wet spring, but not bad humidity. Have had some
warm days though. The beet pulp has stayed dry in the can,
but I am concerned about the humidity and how long it's
been in the can. Should I just compost this bag and start
new? For the $12 maybe I should buy some peace of mind.

Does anyone know the shelf life of beet pulp and under
what conditions,
other than getting wet, that would be an
environment for mold to grow?

Thanks,
Ann
SW PA
