It is very contam resistant. You should use it as fast as possible but if it is in a closed bucket it is usable for a long time.
I found a forgotten closed bucket with hydrated coir/verm that was about 6 months old without any signs of mold. (I did not use it..)

But anyway... I would use it as fast as possible... (within 7 - 14 days)

It is cheap so I recommend to make a new batch and toss the old substrate in the garden. It is always good to calculate the substrate you need to avoid "waste".

I've used month old cvg that was at room temp with no issues. Gallon size ziploc bag it and toss it in the fridge if your worried about it.
