    Correct. Fruits ripen through emitting gases. If those gases can be caught (in a box) the ripen process is faster. Also increases ripening of other fruits like apples and so on.

      Apples are non-climacteric. Ethylene gas causes degradation of the fruit not ripening. It’s a little technicality.
