Hello, this is the first time I try to get seeds from my flytraps. I want to know how do I know if the pods have being pollinated or they just dying.

I think you'll be able to see the seeds developing. It looks like there is pollen on the stigma to me but I am not sure.

Sure looks like the stigmas have pollen on them, so I'd guess it should set seed if it is well cared for throughout the seeding process. Sometimes the seed production will abort if the plant isn't healthy and for other reasons. But if cared for well, the seeds should be ready in a few weeks.
