Thanks....hoping they’re okay.....#10 sealed can.....from 2009 😂
You can only try.
Are they heirloom seeds?
I buy nothing but heirloom or OP seeds these days.
No hybrids. I don’t trust anything any more and do not want to be dependent on buying my seeds which may not be available.
There’s been too much talk about people who would control the food supply, as they can control people through hunger.
No thanks. Not going along with that one.
2009 might be a bit old unless they were stored in the freezer.
When we moved here I planted a bunch of from the similar type can you’re talking about from 2009 also. Must have been a good sale that year or something! Anywhere they sprouted fine, that was in 2015 so they can was 6 years old. I didn’t start storing my seeds in the freezer until after that, so they were just at ambient temperature.
I never bought any seeds after that because I harvested the non-hybrid seeds and have been using them the following year. I really enjoy harvesting the seeds, it’s almost better than the produce.
I checked them by dampening a paper towel, sticking a bunch of seeds inside it, then sticking the paper towel in a ziplock bag. Put it in a warm place and see how many sprout. If not all do then I just plant double or triple the number of seeds.
