How to finish seed pod ripening indoors?

I already lost (too late) the ONE seed pod on my Gunther's Pride. What is the sugar/water ratio for finishing them indoors? Also, does the color of the pod have anything to do with what you might get? As in, striped pods vs. plain colored? I'm going to try growing some this winter. Thanks!

Re: Seed pods..

I don't know the answer to the question but....

How many seeds would a seed pod hold if a seed pod could hold seed????

made me chuckle.

Re: I need to move about 400 hostas

Do you have help, or do we need to form a hosta digging posse to help? Where are you located?

Marlys~~Sue will attest to the fact that Emmy talks ALL of the time. I was thinking using pink duct tape would be less obvious; blend in a little. :lol: :lol: :lol: Are we going to have to give Marlys and Reldon time outs on opposite sides of the gardens??

Re: Hallson's Get-Together 2009

I can't wait. Only thing is, I just found out my son and husband have a scout outing, so I will have to bring Emmy. I hope no one minds. Roxanne, do you have a a dog or kitty to keep her occupied? How about duck tape? Preferably pink. :lol: :eek:
