When in dormancy in refrigerator do the traps and stems continue to turn black?
If so do you remove them when periodically checking for mould.

Welcome Col! I am completely against refrig dormancy. I do think, but don't quote me, that people that use the refrig for dormancy pre-treat with a fungicide. I could totally be remembering that incorrectly, like I said earlier... don't quote me.
