The pod wasn't turning brown but had gotten spongy soft and the stalk
was sagging, so I went ahead and harvested the seeds - 4 mature dark
brown, 7 similar but white, and maybe another 10 undeveloped seeds.

I have no idea whether the 4 mature seeds are pure tectorum or if the TB
pollen took.  The seeds are smaller than most TB seeds, but I have had
some TBs with seeds this small, similar looking to my uneducated eye.

Do I handle them the same as TB seeds?  Soak, chill three months and
plant?
