Siberian Kale Maturity Question

[Walk]

We have a row of siberian kale that wintered over unexpectedly this year and it's made a nice bunch of seed so far. Trouble is it's in the sweet corn patch that was just seeded in mid June, with rows going around it. But it's got to go to make room for the corn that is up and trying to get some sun. I was wondering if I pull the whole plants with their green pods and bring it into a shady area to finish maturing and drying if I'll have viable seed? Maybe pull and pack the plants under some moist mulch in a shady spot for a few days first? I think I'm only a couple of weeks shy of having dry down and have harvested a bit on the early side before to beat the birds to the harvest, but never this green.

I imagine that would work fine, I think that stuff is pretty tough. I'v pulled plants up without shaking the dirt off and pitched them on the compost and they rooted down and kept growing.
