i'm asking coz i've bottled some yesterday into 2 ltr pop bottles, primed with a little sugar, and they have pressurised very quickly and i'm worried they might explode if left for 20 days, i cant open them to release any pressure?

(just for info they where in the demijohns approx 5 days at room temp)
