Chrysalidocarpus lutescens seeds viability?

[Binhi Palms]

Can these seeds still germinate? They look green in the photos but irl they're more yellowish, do I still have to ripen them? These are the most mature seeds I could find from the hundreds of trees in our school and the fruits in the inflorescence were sparse so I figured some have been dropping and are ready to pick.

Why not give em a go if that’s all you have, yes yellow seeds are best you should be able to squeeze them and the seed pops out, sort of like a grape when you squeeze it you get the skin left in your hand. Sometimes a palm will abort a few seeds from overbearing or other reasons drop a few immature seeds, perhaps wind or falling branch or palm leaf falling knocks them off. But if that’s all you have go for it.
