I found a bunch of old seeds, mostly vegetables, dating as far back as 2011. Do you think they'll be ok to use or toss them? They've been stored in their original packages which were in a large envelope up stairs where it's hot and dry and dark.
Thanks

I would give them a try, you may just have to sow them a little thicker than you normally would in case they don't all come up. I usually store left over seed in the refridge to keep them cool & dry. Good luck!
I would plant them too. But put at least 2 in each spot to make sure one sprouts. They should have been stored in a cooler place, but you will get some to sprout. I have old seeds too that I'll plant this year. Some heirloom sweet corn and some old beans and field peas.
Good luck with them! Let us know if they do come up, ok? I'd like to see how many do.
