Awesome!!

This is my first year hoping for a harvest. I had some turn brown and brought them in
One had about 10 seeds in it and the other were duds. I'm still learning lol

Do green ones still have a chance this season?

If they look swollen, like yours does, then yes. Don’t try to rush them by opening them early. Let they dry and mature on the plant.
My biggest reason for cutting some too early was they were attacked by mealy bugs. But I still let those dry out before harvesting. The one in my photos dried on the plant and was plentiful.
