Hey guys...i need your help a bit. Well as you see in my profile i come from a troubled place. Anyway i have to go soon to my army reserve duty for about two and half weeks. I'm gonna give my casings for a friend so he can bury them (already done that in the past and it worked well). but i got about 8 jars of WBS at all kind of states, some almost fully colonized and some just starting. The ones that starting, no problem I'll just let them colonize. but how can i preserve the fully colonized the best way so i wont come back and have Myc. block or worse - fruits ? Waiting for your advice. Thanks. BTW the neighbors son is gonna take care of my cat so i have to hide all the stuff that laying around my house and i cant use the fridge. bummer.

Without a fridge, then just store them somewhere completely dark to prevent pinning.

>i'll have to spoon them out ? Right.
>anyway to prevent it ? Short of refrigeration, I see no easy way around it.

I have had dozens of jars pin in total darkness when I forgot about them. I'm guessing this could happen to everyone else as well.
