Well method 1 is to use ziplock bags I find these can work good for a week if you keep them dry and keep the air out . Method 2 my fav is to use a GOOD ( meaning not the cheap ones ) tupperware airtight container mine are a lettuce crisper's . If you chop every weekend this works great . If by some chance you notice your salad getting a little mushy fill your tupperware with water just enough to cover the salad and throw in a tray of ice this will not only RE crisp the veggies but they will last about a week ( you have to add fresh ice every day and I like to change the water every other day ) . And if you only have one ig to feed and you buy one bunch of everything and realize you have way to much you can freeze it just use little ziplock bag's ( Most ig's don't mind this but like people some will not eat food that has been frozen so try it b4 you fill the freezer ) . Well I hoped that was some kind of help .. Travis
