Walking the dog I have seen a large purple poppy growing at the side of
the road, I would like to collect the seed pod and sow the seed but I am
not sure whether to cut the pod off now and dry it, they have only just
finished flowering or leave them on the plant longer?

If you cut off now, you will get nothing. Wait until it dries on the plant
and rattles when shaken. The rattles will be from the seeds which will then
be mature.
