There's pods on 1 plant that seem to be turning red.I thought it was from the sun.The 2 plants are of a different variety,i wish i could get a ID on them that's more specific than just Adenium obsenium (hope spelling is correct, i always goof it up).One plant has long leaves the other has more of an oval shaped leaves.
What NPK does it need to be fed at this time a higher nitrogen? Which one needs to be higher now.I feed it a 15-30-15 fertilizer the beginning on the summer and it really bloomed great,it was full of blooms.
here's the first pod,if you click the picture to blow it up they're all dated, i try to keep the dates correct.

You can see the difference in the pods on the 2 plants,the color is different,i have noticed a slight change in the color of the second plant.Do the pods get softer or anything else before they open?

If you look in the back you can see a pod from 1 plant and the rest from the other plant

Here's the difference in the pods themselves where they started growing from the stem where the flower blooms. Again look at the date stamps on the photo's,How long do they usually stay on the plant? Do i need to hurry and cover the plants so not to loose the seeds?

Sorry for all the questions especially if i reworded the same questions any!! This is my first time with them making seed pods. Don't know why i'm even worried about it,i have never been able to grow anything from seed. Someone else may like to have some i guess! Thumbs up I agree
A green thumb comes only as a result of the mistakes you make while learning to see things from the plants point of view!!
