HolographicYou Posted December 11, 2014 Hey there corroboreans! Quick question regarding collecting seed pods off of acacia. I understand collecting pods should be done when they have dried and are about to open. Although I was wondering if there was a means to mature the developing seeds away from the plant. Better yet how many weeks would you say (from observation) it takes for a green pod to fully develop to brown and popping open? Kind regards, HY Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theuserformallyknownasd00d Posted December 11, 2014 It varies too much with environment, type etc to give you a solid answer for your last question. Some take 12mths. And no, I doubt you could remove the pods and mature them off the tree. Maybe if a largish branch was taken it would have enough energy to compete the job? Crack a green pod, sometimes they're ready and just waiting On some hot days to dry the pod ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
