Viability testing old seeds - Veggie - 18-06-2020
I had some old pattypan seeds with sow by dates between 2012 and 2017. An easy and cheap way to test viability is to put them on damp kitchen roll in a tray, inside a plastic bag and wait and see.
Here are some I set out on 14/6 - 4 days ago.

Can you see that little sprout? There are 4 like that to date!!
Remember, every seed deserves a chance.
