I have seeds in my fridge from at least five strains that don’t have stripes. Not all do. If they sprout, they’re probably good 
You can always do a pinch test on them, too.

Yes, not all seeds become dark or have the stripes. Harvest your seeds, let them dry. Then in a week or two after they are dried, soak/plant a few and see how many sprout.

Looks like a healthy little sprout,i would say that real good…Also Rand not all strains make tiger striped beans.Looks like whatever you did is working.Well done bro.

That is cool. I had one drop and start from my Mango Thai.
That is a pretty good indication most of your beans will be ready.

Just as it sounds, pinch/squeeze the seed between your thumb and index finger, maybe give it a gentle roll with pressure. If it doesn’t crack or collapse, it should be good.

Yes, exactly that. Unripe seeds are relatively easy to crush with nothing more than finger pressure, whereas ripe seeds will remain unharmed.

Thank you MUCH Howard as well as @Seamonkey84! Thats a good thing to know, that I can use some pressure to see. I KINDA do that, now, but I HAD NO IDEA that it would work as a measure of maturity! Great information, PEEPS! I was planning on harvesting them on Halloween. They seem done to me, especially with the “pinch test” results, but a nod to SOMA and what I read he wrote and that’s if you think its done, wait a week! Its worked good for me thus far!
Btw, I’ve got 3 of those Orange Goji F2’s at about 4 weeks in flower and a few clones I took from one of them and they are doing just SPLENDID! I’ll post pics when I get a chance and post them! Oooh man! I’m excited AF to taste these and witness their beauty FULLY develop!

My orange goji F2 are VERY compact and dense, is that typical?

I’m not sure, this is the first time Ive grown them out! Mine arent too compact as of now, but that could change. How far along are they?
