Why do zucchinis preserve better than cucumbers in room temperature?

in #question • 6 years ago

Given that both are either in air or in cartons, to protect them from humidity.
They both belong to the same family: Cucurbitaceae.
Zucchinis remain fresh for weeks when held in room temperature on thin metal sticks.
Better than if I kept them in my fridge.
