Hello Justin

A trick for harvesting seeds if you are not on the spot if the seeds are
ripe
there are teabags which you can fill yourself (in 4 sizes)
and there are miniature clothes pegs
just put the teabag over the seedpot and close it with the clothes peg
and collect the seeds when you are there
