OK, this may be a stupid question, but...

Does it harm your gear if it is exposed to freezing temperatures for a prolonged amount of time?

I'm moving in late Dec accross Canada, and I want to ship my gear with the rest of my shit. The problem is that it will be in a non-heated container for about 10-14 days. It will be test prop, sust, enthante, fina, winny zambons, eq, and some tabs. Will it screw things up or am i just paranoid?

Pills, generally no problem. AS for injectables, some tend to crystalize if exposed to freezing temperatures. (Also, test tends to turn creamy colored, hence the term "freezer test," in which some people put their test in the freezer for an hour or so to see if it's really test.) Once you have moved, simply re-store them at room temperatures. If you get crystalization, hold the vial in your closed hand for a minute or two to warm it up, and turn it over a few times gently (unlike a 007 martini, AS should be nether shaken nor stirred vigorously) to further break up any remaining crystalization.

P.S. There are no stupid questions, only stupid people. Relax - you do not appear to be one of them.

Thanks guys. I was mostly worried about something like winny zambon amps, since it's water based, it could expand when frozen and crack the amp. Any chance of this happening?

Are you planning on stashing your gear in the snow?

Does it get cold in Canada?

Stash my gear in the snow? What is that suppose to mean? Did you read the original post?

I'm shipping my stuff in an unheated container accross Canada, and no there won't be any snow in my box full of gear...
