well i recently replanted a large bare root loph i recieved from a roadman. after watering it this pink thing shot up and i smushed it and found two hard, black seeds inside it. i placed them in a matchbox to dry out.
should i go ahead and start those inside with a nice cup fitted with plastic wrap for humidity? or should i wait till the actual growing season starts? i have a place on my windowsill that would be good, or do they need artificial light during the winter?

They prefer warm temps when germinating, so unless you have a heat mat and/or a light you are better to wait for Spring.

well, they may not even be viable, i've heard if u plan to harvest seed to grow that you should wait until the fruit shrivels up on the button to ensure ripeness

They should be fine, I've had no problems with fresher fruit.
But two seeds 
I'd wait until I had more.

personally I'd plant them the top of fridge,or computer monitor works fine for heat if you even need it. Keep some fluorescent tubes/lights real close til next growing season.

i do have a heat mat but no lights. i guess my biggest worry being stretching i should wait for spring.

i don't have many lophs to make seeds. most of mine are very small and havent flowered. I feel lucky to have found the two seeds that i did. I really didn't even have it for a week and it shot up that fruit. i just wanted to get a head start for the growing season...
