Hello all,

I waited to harvest my drosera Intermedia seeds when the seed pod started turning black, which is what I did(the tips were turning black and the seed pod was swollen). I think I harvested them about a week early( dumb newbie mistake) because about 90 percent of the seeds are green. Pic below:

Is there still a way to save them by drying them in the fridge, or do I discard of them and wait for the other seed pods to(actually)ripen? The reason I am asking is because the seeds are really big and look viable other than the green color.
Any thoughts/opinions appreciated,
Max

I would gladly take a few seeds if ur willing to give some away and also my vft seeds were still greenish when I harvested them so let half of them dry and immediately plant other half see wichbworks best.

Sure, good idea! Should I just put half in stratification and let half dry? I will gladly give you a bunch of seeds, just PM me. I have 7 flower stalks, so I think I'll be fine If I let go of just 1 pod :D
