Kelly, 

That is the way I usually have selected pods ripen and I just
change the water daily. A few years ago on the old iris-l,
someone posted that method. I first tried it with some collected
I. versicolor pods that I was afraid would get mowed down by the
road crews since the wild stand was on the road-side.
