I have two Bc. Kosh Wallis pods that have turned a little red due to a little too much light. Will this harm them? I have removed them from their spot where they were getting too much light. They are about 3 months old so they have a little longer to ripen up.

Joshua,
Hello. I can't really answer your question, but I would think that they would be fine. I did want to ask you a question though. How was your Kosh Wallis pollinated? Did you pollinate by hand or did nature take care of it for you? I also have Bc. Kosh Wallis and it is currently in spike. Just wondering if it might have gotten pollinated by a local bug.

Good luck with your seed pod.. i'm sure it'll be fine.

Chad

I hand pollinated the flowers myself. They will be Bc. Kosh Wallis x sib. and not self since I have two separate plants. I'll send you a message when they're ready I might be willing to part with one pod since I have two pods.

I think the pods will be fine, though as long as they don't get burnt. I know high light will shorten the maturation time of the pods, but by which factor I am unsure.
