Leaving town in a week, put casing into FC for a bit?

My two trays of fully colonized hpoo were cased a couple days ago. The myc has just barely poked through the casing today. But I have to leave town next week, and will be gone for 8 days. Should I put them into the FC until I leave or maybe just for a few days before putting them into the fridge? Or should I just put them into the fridge now? Will they benefit from some "fruiting mode" before pausing, or will that just confuse them?

I think you misunderstood. It is ready for the FC now, but I'm leaving town in a week and I can't have it fruiting while I'm gone. So I either allow it to partially fruit, meaning fully colonize the casing and possibly form pins, then put into the fridge, or just put into the fridge now and start the fruiting process in two weeks.

i would refrigerate now, well before pins develop. you can get away with doing it either way you describe but it seems to make more intuitive sense to stall the mycelium while its still vegetative, rather than fruiting. if you don't mind the extra wait i think it will pay off for you in the long run.
