How about 4-6 months? Different catts will mature in different conditions at different rates. What's more important is that you ask the flasker when you should ship it. Some flaskers flask "green pod" meaning they want a pod before it is entirely mature, some flaskers want a ripe pod, even one that has split.

Tell your flasker what you have crossed and when you did the polination and they'll be able to tell you what they want and when it should be shipped.

My flasker wanted ripe dry pods. I took an empty teabag and put it over the pod and left it. The pod matured, has split, and is now ready to send off.
