stanhopea seed pods
 

I crossed a stanhopea tigrina with stanhopea deltoidea and the plant currently has two seed pods. I need to know when they would be ready for green pod flasking.

Green pod flasking
 

So is there anyone out there who knows when a stanhopea seed pod is ready for the green pod flasking?

120-150 days watch for seed pod to turn yellow on the ends. I just sowed some seeds of den.

To be on the safe side I place a white coffee filter on each pod, stapled the filter at the top when I thought the time was getting close. I also wanted green capsule flasking but I didn't want to take a chance on loosing any seeds. The time to maturity are really estimates because the different types of culture and where you live make a difference in the development of the capsule.
