Advice Needed. I Have to Leave Town for 4Days...

Here's the deal. My daughter is getting married and I have to be out of town for four fucking days. I have some Golden Teachers that just finished their first flush. I have at least 8 jars colonizing right now. What do I do? I realize the Golden Teachers are either done with their productive lifetime by then or close to it. Not sweating that. I guess my best bet is to keep everything in the jars until I get back.
Does this plan make sense?

If the jars are still colonizing you're fine, just let them keep colonizing. If there aren't fruits on your cakes right now just keep them in the FC, make sure everything is plenty wet before you go and forget about it.
I've still never understood how people run into this problem.

Give the cakes a dunk and stick them back in your FC while your away and leave the other jars as is

I agree with everyone I would dunk my cakes and stick them back in the FC, and just wait to birth the other ones til you get back...they will be fine. And maybe you come home to a nice surprise in your FC 
Congrats on your kiddo getting married off btw

You haven't told us anything about your fruiting chamber or your spawn/substrate either. I'm assuming you're using BRF cakes? If that's the case and your FC is something you have to fan and mist then do as everyone said and keep the ones fruiting for their second flush, and wait on the others until you get back. If its an automated FC that you don't have to fan and mist then fruit the jars if they're 100% colonized and consolidated (again, assuming you're using BRF cakes)

I use a SGFC. I am doing cubes so there is nothing but the grains or the BRF cakes. I have some going on popcorn and some going on the BRF.
@ gretchenmeister. Thanks for the kind words, gretchenmeister. It's her third marriage and she is only 34. Let's hope this one sticks.

Worst case scenario, you come back to a bunch of spores and fully matured mushrooms. I don't think four days is long enough for pins to form, fully mature, and then start decaying.
