I'm zone 4a/3b (Red River Valley). When the hostas go dormant, I put the jars
in my outdoor shed, which is cold but protected. Our attached garage always
seems too "heated". Sometimes we get -40 temps, and you're right, the jars
could crack. On the other hand, I have stone troughs, and I leave them out.
Ten years, so far so good.
