An apparatus for fruit degreening and method of use. The apparatus may comprise: a plurality of air-permeable fruit storage compartments, a climate control unit configured to maintain temperature and/or humidity inside the apparatus a gas exchanger configured to hold a quantity of degreening agent and dispense it as necessary, and a fan array including a plurality of centrifugal fans, the fan array configured to direct airflow in a continuous loop between at least the fan array, the plurality of fruit storage compartments, the climate control unit, and the gas exchanger. The fan array may be used to evenly conduct air through either all of the storage compartments or some percentage of them, resulting in generally faster and less risky degreening.
