Good question! I have this happen to carrot top greens too. They look fantastic, then the next day I throw them out. I have tried washing them, and wrapping in a paper towel and not washing them and the results are the same. Next I will try the green bags I am now using. I’ll let you know if that works!

i really think it depends on how fresh the greens are when you buy them.  tho i’ve never had carrot top greens last longer than a day or 2.  when stores display greens they keep misting them to keep them fresh & i’ve found the same to work for me at home.  i usually buy romaine, red & green leaf lettuces and each time i take them out of the fridge i wet my hand & pat moisture on the top of each so they’re not dripping wet, but have some moisture.  my greens usually last long enough this way for me to use them up (4 or 5 days).

Yes, they are highly perishable! They are soaking wet from the produce mister when I bring them home. My buns can finish them off before they get all wilty. One thiing I do is when I get home, I dry them out with a paper towel, then wrap them in another paper towel and they manage to keep better that way. If you have the green bags, let us know if they work with dandelions. I usually buy romaine lettuce, cilantro, curly and/or italian parsley for my babies. The dandelions leaves are a real treat! I use to buy carrot tops, but I had way too many carrots to eat!

I have four rabbits, so I can get rid of them pretty quickly. I saw some edible flowers in the produce section. I’m assuming if they are okay for rabbits? Has anyone fed these to their rabbits?

Hmm with the dandelions, I go home and make sure they are pretty dry first, then I cut them into 4 good size portions
and I place them back into a small plastic produce bag. Sometimes I wrap them slightly with some newspaper and then place
them back into the plastic produce bag.That seems to work well too!

I find they gown downhill quickly too. I try to remember to un-rubberband or twist tie them as soon as i get home.
Also, I try to feed them within a day or two of buying them.

I always remove the rubberbands and/or wires around my produce.  I also remove them from the plastic bags and store w/ dry paper towels directly in the produce drawer.  I don’t store leafy veggies w/ anything but leafy veggies.  I find that when I buy my produce from the farmer’s market on Saturdays, it tends to last during the week.  The only thing I’ve gotten that’s gone bad quickly is my red leaf lettuce.  I get dandelion greens from the farmer’s market & have had success.
