Are the pods open? If so, you can harvest them now.
You might want to do what I do: Just leave some alone and let them fall to the
ground. I have gotten some lovely seedlings using that method.
Ben is right---but that doesn't mean that the seeds won't germinate. (One must
remember that at one point in time---perhaps 10,000 years ago, a plant mutated
and fromed the first hosta species. Then that plant mutated and the bees were
doing their work--creating other species. And those mutated &c.)
I would not be too concerned about seeds and their viability.
