Only late summer and fall seed typically need stratification to simulate winter. The seeds dropping now need to be planted as soon as possible. They need no stratification. they are dropped now to get a head start and harden off before winter. Stratification is done so the seeds start early in the spring and have time to harden off before winter. If they started in the fall they would die because they are not ready for winter. Anyway long story short- stratify late maturing seed, plant early maturing seed. Most seeds only need 30 days stratification in the fridge but some like walnuts need 120 days.
