Need some help

Hello, I was wondering if anyone could help me out. I'm a first time grower and i'm currently growing some Cubes in one of my draws. I bought a grow kit which is basically a bag of rye grain from online, along with a syringe full of Cubensis spores. The mycelium has nearly completely grown over all of the grain and i'm four days away from putting it in the humidity tent, which came with the kit, and leaving it out in indirect sunlight. Here's my problem. I'm planning on visiting a few of my friends in another town for two weeks because it's a few of their birthdays. The problem is if i do this i won't be able to look after my mushroom grow. I was just wondering what would happen if i was to leave my grow kit in my draw and wait till the next stage of the grow for when i returned? All in all this would be prolonging the mycelium growth stage by three weeks. My question to you is, would the grow still be successful if i was to do this, or would the mycelium "go off" so to speak? Any feedback would be great, especially if you have any solutions or any ideas of what i could do. I apologise if i haven't been clear enough or i haven't used the correct terminology in my post, like i said, this is my first attempt at growing mushrooms.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but if you do have any growth it almost certainly will be dead when you return.

Hmmm... Might have success with refrigerating it until you return... I don't know what came in the kit; but you might consider (upon your return) with transferring your grain spawn to a bulk substrate via a monotub.

I would either let the bag continue colonizing and just wait till your back. Or spawn your sub to bulk and allow it to colonize that while your gone. In my opinion the latter of the two would be your best bet.

Yup, I've left grain jars over 3-4 weeks after 100%, just fruit when you get hom

I have FINALLY written up a couple teks as to how SHP has done things in the past. DISCLAIMER: This is not for the newbie to mycology, and not going to work for everyone! This is simply what works for one person when other teks and methods have failed miserably!
