OK I don't know much about seed germinating so you will have to tell me when I should remove it from the plant for proper rippening here is a picture of what they look like now.

My computer is running like a snail tonight

OK if I read this right, depending on how you plan on germinating, they should remain on the plant for 100 days. They have been there for about 30 days!!

Den mature capsule may take:
- Den nobile 6 1/2 months
- Den Phal hybrid: 5 months
- Dendrobium: 12 months.
I don't know how long does it take for this Den. So it may take about 5-12 months to get a mature pod, then 8-12 months to get mature seedlings strong enough for de-flasking. If nobody wants it let me have one. I want to try it for fun. Hope everything are going well I will send you back tiny seedlings in vitro after 3 months. Cheers.
