RE: HYB:Lace Pod Covers

Thanks Char! I understand that when they're ready they will split. Is it too late at this point? Is there something I should be looking for earlier that tells me they're ready?

Hi Molly,

I have been working in the garden all day and my
pods are not ready to harvest.  I live in 4 b.

Maybe another week or two.

Is this the same across the country or specific to
your region? Should I be looking for mature pods
on my plants now or later in zone 4 ?
