seeds Frozen pods seeds?

Hello all,
 
I have done some research on the forums as this topic has been posted before.
 
I am aware that most people have about a 50% success rate with frozen pods.
 
I can accept that and am willing to try anyways, just wanted some info as far as how to go about it?
 
Should I let the pod thaw first or cut it open frozen?
 
Once i get the seeds do i have to dry them on paper towels for a certain amount of time?
 
Thanks! 
 
Steve
 
It'll be mushy when it thaws, but other than that it makes no difference if you do it thawed or frozen.
 
If you're storing the seeds for any length of time, dry them first.  They'll mold if you put them away wet.  If you're planting them immediately then feel free to just put them in the dirt.
 
It doesn't matter.  Don't let them sit around in the thawed pod so they are overly wet for more than a few hours.
