I ripened a pod on a broken stalk this summer by putting the stalk in a vase of water. Since buds mature and open in a vase, I thought why not pods, and it worked.

If the stalk gets broken or whatever: Here's my one-cents ' worth on this!
Many years ago I heard a discussion on this -- and "they" said to stick the
stalk in a potato (irish, white, I am sure) I think that was to provide the
necessary moisture to keep the stalk alive long enuf for the seeds to ripen.
Om second thoughts, I'll charge only a Confederate ha'penny for this,
because the answer is so late! HA! Rosalie nr Baltimore zone 7
