Keep it cool but most importantly keep it dry or it will start to grow. As there are no roots producing food for them they will die.

See link below, keep dry like Ian said, but you can keep outside, fridge to freeze depending on needed life span:

I know a guy that keeps it in his outdoor shed even on those 110 degree days. He does pretty good Russ, you should give it a try.

Hey, who is the guy who keeps the root shield in his outdoor shed even when it gets really hot? That is ridiculous. And probably not true.
