Flower buds rise above the leaves. Leaves and flower buds continue to enlarge. Floral parts can be identified. After final pollination, prune off the remaining unopened flower buds and side shoots. Pruning directs the plant's energy into developing the seed.
Petals drop from the pollinated flowers.
Pods elongate and swell. Development of the seed and embryonic plant has begun and will continue until approximately Day 36. Seeds mature and ripen. Lower leaves yellow and dry. Plants dry down and pods turn yellow.
