Dry your pods out for 1 to 3 days to prevent fungal growth. Lay your pods in the sun on a cloth, metal roofing, or the hood of your car. Properly dried pods should snap in two when you bend them. If they don't, they're not dry enough. Wetting or washing pods increases the chances of fungal growth. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/9\/99\/Plant-a-Mesquite-Tree-Step-3.jpg\/v4-460px-Plant-a-Mesquite-Tree-Step-3.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/9\/99\/Plant-a-Mesquite-Tree-Step-3.jpg\/aid9911060-v4-728px-Plant-a-Mesquite-Tree-Step-3.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a><br>\n<\/p><p><br \/>\n<\/p><\/div>"}
