Don't freeze them, when the ice melts it will suck in dirty air.
In the room temp, they may last 3-6 months. In the fridge, I have heard of them lasting up to 5 years (a year is a better estimate).

ok well thanks again, does it matter that ive had them in my room for the past 3 weeks, some days its at 80f, other at 86, anyway as soon as i get home ill store them in the fridge...and now i see how important it is to keep steady temps cause i left the jars at 76 , 74, whatever and no sign of anything, i jacked my heating at 86 87, and one day later i saw growth for the first time, pretty cool

No it doesn't matter if you leave e'm at room temp for months.I can see why people would want to keep them in the fridge. But I can tell you they will be perfectly fine for months at room temps.

Yep true in most cases, I have had people say that there spores germinated in their syringes at room temp, although this has never happened to me (cause I store them in the fridge ) It may be an issue?

Well it may happen but I can't see it unless fully sterilized water wasn't used. Or the spores were contamed??
I have made honey water in syringes with spores and in 6 days the spores had totaly filled the syringe very thick. That is cool

Ya there really has to be some type of nutes IMHO for germination to occur, none the less I thought I'd just pass that on for whatever it's worth?

i'm interested in the honey tek, umm, i havent taken the time to inform myself in the fak but i'm sure youll take the time to answer me, what do you guys use aside honey and sterilised water, a spore syringe or prints..... i used one syringe outta four, i stored three, i figured if i do this wrong well not all is lost, so i innoced 4 1 liter pints, and so far only two show growth, but the rest will come, i cant wait to see if any get contamed, i'm expecting it obviously, but yet hoping one will survive lol

Yeha it's cool. I guess I never really thought about long term storage because if a syringe lays around here for more than a week I got problems.
