How long does it take for seeds to mature before they are viable, after pollination. TIA!

I was late dusting them. Still white stamen, but I'm a first timer so I am unsure. Thanks! I'll just need to let them run a bit over mature for the flower. Oh, well. Only a week or two though.

Thank You! I only have about four weeks left to mature, but if the seeds need longer, so be it. Shooting for "Better Made Cookies" when I'm done. Would doing a flush for the rest of the plants do any damage if it's done two weeks early? Thanks Again!

damage to the seeds, that is
Flush shouldn't hurt, and the sooner you pull it the more immature seeds you will have. If this is your first time, you will probably be surprised at how many seeds you get even on a tiny plant! You will have mature seeds at 4 weeks post pollination but will have more if you wait a little longer. You will start seeing seeds poking out of the calyx as they get more mature and fatten up!

Should still be fine. Let them finish. You’ll see mature beans popping out of the buds.
Do you change up the nutes? Read or heard that seeds need more N than P

Not usually. I only change my feeding when plants look like they need a change

Patience is key. Pulling a bunch of immature seeds is balls
