Hi! I'm new to this forum, and new to brugs. I have a Black Angel Trumpet. They look completely different than all the others, and the seed pods are like golf-ball sized pomegranates. I have been experimenting with them. I guess I'm seeing that they start out with lots of purple spots, then fade to green, then split open when they're "ripe". I have thousands of seeds now, and 4 new plants from cuttings as well as newly sprouted seeds. The ones I planted on July 3rd came up a week later. EVERY seed sprouted! I was amazed. So, I'm picking the pods before they have a chance to split to see if they continue to ripen or stop. So far it appears that they stop.
Any advice on storing and selling these seeds? I could use a second job! :) Each average sized pod has 350 seeds in it. Do I have a money tree here?
