Datura seed pods bursting while still green?

I have several Datura's which bloom profusly, and have also developed green prickly seed pods. I have read here that they turn brown when ready to pop, but mine have opened up still green. The seeds are a deep rusty brown. I even brought a few pods inside and placed them in a bowl, thinking it'd be a while until they opened. Well, in 1 day one of them popped open and spilled seeds into the bowl. It's cool, but is this normal? These Datura are the upright form with wonderful smelling foliage and huge fragrant white flowers that don't dangle downwards.
