podding

Removing from husks

Podding is the formation or harvesting of pods, especially legumes like peas or beans.

Gardeners watch for when plants begin podding to time their harvest.

In newer usage, podding describes recording or participating in a podcast: We spent the afternoon podding with some great guests.
