curing onions, a question

I've got a big crop of onions curing in my man cave (on drying racks in a warm room with a fan). In the past, I always removed the greens promptly when the time was right. This year, I'll be leaving for a 2 week vacation before I'm ready to remove the greens. Will any harm come if the greens stay on the bulbs and extra week or so? Thanks!

The greens will be no problem. They will dry up and can be removed later. Have a nice vacation!
