Amaryllis Seeds and Flooded Vegetable Gardens

Amaryllis Seeds need to be planted as soon as possible to prevent them from drying out.

Q: About a month ago, I harvested two seed pods from a beautiful waxed Amaryllis that was done flowering. The pods are in the refrigerator. One opened and the seeds are black, so maybe they are not good. I prepared a few flowerpots with expanded shale and potting soil.

What do I do with them? Please let me know the next steps. The original bulb, sans wax, is continuing to grow, albeit in a weakened state due to saving the pods.
