Mike - my last visit, I saw green seeds around the base of the trunks. Were these premature drops?

The seeds that have been dropping seem to be about as big as they're going to get in terms of overall size, but the embryo's are still developing. Every time we cut one of the fallen ones open the endosperm seems to have grown a little bigger. The tree furthest from the house is further along then the closer one, but my guess is that the first ripe seeds will be ready sometime in March or early April.
