To collect seed, allow the seedheads to mature and dry out on the plant. Place a bag around the dried seedheads and hang the whole plant upside down. After a week, give the plant a good shake, remove the bag, and open the seed heads to release the seeds. Before storing, make sure seeds are completely dried to prevent mildew and mould.
