Sausage the problem is lack of light and warmth, in November.
I would pick them all now, before the pods start to decay. Shell them out and any fat ones may dry, but probably you are looking at eating them fresh.And not keeping them for seed.
I find they keep for up to 2 weeks in a fridge before cooking, or freeze them.
For seed crops, leave some plants unpicked all summer.
