Exploding Potatos Mac OS
Yes, while I will give you many arguments why I think a Mac using OS/X is a better choice for me than a PC running Windows, an Apple computer is still built with 'parts' just like any PC. And although some will tell you 'Apple uses higher quality parts', I'm not sure there is much weight to that argument. I believe there is data to support that. Get more done with the new Google Chrome. A more simple, secure, and faster web browser than ever, with Google’s smarts built-in.

Exploding Potatoes Mac Os Catalina
Abstract
In three years of experiments at Iowa Agricultural Experiment Station in the use of formaldehyde gas for treating seed potatoes for scab, it was found that the gas greatly reduces the germinating powers of the tubers. The injury not only affects the eyes, preventing germination, hut also causes sunken spots about the lenticels. The tubers absorb the gas and retain it and thus are poisoned. In experiments with the usual treatment for potato scab, where the seed is soaked in‘ standard solutions of formaldehyde or corrosive sublimate, it was found that injury results if the tubers are soaked for more than two hours, the injury increasing with the length of treatment. It was also found that in soaking tubers in standard solutions for potato scab they should be placed in the solution whole and not be cut for planting before treatment. Cut tubers when treated for only two hours showed a marked decrease in germination.
