[Harris Azariel]

u see my Intermedia Cuba is flowering many times but already 3flowers i harvested it with unripe seeds.

and somesay that seedpod are ready to harvest twhen the seedpod turn black.

and now most of the seedpods now have black stripe on each pod(not whole pod is black)

so is it ready to be harvested or should i w8 till the whole pod turn 100%black?

wait it until you see the seeds "naked"....

today i harvested a stalk of dro spathulata, few flowers on bottom part are ready but seeds inside few flowers on the top are still "green"

Allen- what do u mean "Naked"?

hey if i harvested a seedpod contain unripe seed inside,can it get ripe if i keep it in a container or will it just be unripe?

[allenphoon]

it means that you will actually see the seeds on the seed pods, you will have some falling down when pressing on them
if you harvest unripe seeds pods, keep them in a close container and cross your fingers so tht it will turn black!!

sorry, can`t seem to see your pic of the seedpod...simple rule of thumb....wait til its all black, fully black. don`t harvest before that coz it`ll be of no use. the seeds are very tiny.

ok thanks Tarence just being impatiently to harvest it xD

[Tarence]

most welcomed.....very soon you`ll have so many seeds you`ll dunno what to do with it. *smile* happy CP-ing.
