Hi all , after a bit of advice from the knowledgeable people here on ACD .
After a bit of a clear out , I have found an small airtight tub containing approx 100 seeds , all saved from various baggies.

My question is this , what is the best way to determine if any of them are still worth trying to grow ?

Given the "drought" that seems to be happening round here right now the decision has been made to start atleast a couple of plants off , any help would be appreciated :-)

The only way to see if they're viable is to germinate them.

Some people give old seeds a little squeeze, the crap ones will just crumble under no real pressure.
