    How long after I Pick Peppers are seeds viable?

    I picked a bunch of ripe peppers recently, and set them out on the counter. After a few days, some are a bit mushy, as can be expected. Can I still get viable seeds to plant next year if the peppers themselves are not super fresh anymore? I mean like a week to ten days after they are picked...
