There have been reports of pods up to eight feet (2.5 meters) in length. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] This pod, like all legumes , is a single carpel , the largest carpel of any known plant. Inside the pods are ten to fifteen seeds , each of which have a diameter of 6 cm (2.4 in) and a thickness of 2 cm (0.79 in). [ 6 ]
Seeds grow inside pods, like pea pods. If the grower wants to cultivate them, pods should be removed from the plant while still green to prevent exposure to winter temperatures. The seeds, which are technically beans, could be edible. [16] Parts of the true Corkscrew plant might be poisonous. [17] Corkscrew vine seedpods
The sowing of 90 kg (200 lb) selected seeds in a distance of 60 to 80 cm (24–31 in), either by hand or by seed drill, follows. Plants germinate fast due to the high-fat content in the seeds.

Germination is usually the growth of a plant contained within a seed resulting in the formation of the seedling.
The fruit of P. heterophylla is a long, narrow pod that opens to release tufted seeds. [9] These seeds pods are around 15 cm long. [10] Each pod holds numerous seeds, and each one is tipped with a tuft of silky hairs. [4] The two-valved pod opens from the tip downwards, bending outwards and raising seeds up so that their tufts can be caught by ...
Before buying your seeds or starter plants, make a rough garden plan. You’ll have an estimate of the amount of space available for planting. You’ll have an estimate of the amount of space ...
The pods are 5–10 cm long and 0.4–0.6 cm wide and contain 12–14 septum-separated seeds, which can be either cylindrical or spherical in shape, and green, yellow, brown, or blue in color. [13] Seed colors and presence or absence of a rough layer are used to distinguish different types of mung bean.
