Sue - Thank you!!
How about shrinkage. If they shrink down to a small percentage of what they were when collected from the pod, would that be another indicator of a non-viable seed? I know the ones I tossed in the trash could not possibly be viable. They are almost flat, very, very small, and completely shriveled. Is drying them out for 3 days possibly too long? I had read in the article above that you leave them out for about a day and then bag, tag, and put them in the fridge. Is 3 days too long for them to dry in an A/C environment? I am wondering if I had refrigerated them after 1 day instead waiting 3 days for drying if they might still be viable. Which is why I asked if they can die if the drying process is too long?
