In experiments on storage of carambola cv. B17 fruit it was shown that there were significant changes, which were greatly influenced by fruit maturity, the storage period, and temperature during storage. There was a highly significant correlation between fruit maturity and colour development of the fruit. Mature fruits can be stored longer at low temperatures since they are more resistant to disease development. Fruits harvested at 12 and 13 weeks after fruit set can be stored for 4 weeks at 5 and 10 deg C.
