Comments

@prodigy9326 probably a guarantee that they’ll be good before that date. Just like food, ignore the dates, if it’s mouldy don’t eat it  

Answer 3

I thought they gone off

Answer 4

Yes or worth a try anyway x

Answer 5

How long do they last

Comments

They usually say a sow by date on the packet , but I don't take any notice and I would give them a try

Answer 6

I have some also dated 2015 (and some even older) I’m trying to see if they’ll grow. I read this idea online for checking them - Put them in moist paper towels in ziplock bags so I can see easily. If any sprout, I’ll transfer to soil  ( put them in two days ago) said if nothing happens in 10-14 days, then won’t grow.  

Answer 7

Just try them.  

Answer 8

I read that if you put them in water and if they sink there good and if they float there no good

Answer 9

As my dad says one of two things will happen, they’ll grow or they won’t and the only way you’ll know is to try.
