I have left about 100 pods un-harvested, with a view to collecting seed,

Should I leave the swollen pods to dry out in situ or should I shell
them and air-dry the peas? TIA.
Leave them.
I select my pods for seed through the season keeping the best, these I
spray blue using an Oasis flower spray paint bought from a local
wholesale florist.

What a brilliant idea! Better than tying string onto the stems of
plants (such as dahlias! from which I want to save the seed.
Does the rain not wash it off?
