    @dhansonranch Месяц назад

    Right on! Unfortunately the general public is led to believe that nothing lasts - but larger kernels like corn will last for years, if not decades, if kept proper. In a lot of cases, seed companies are required to put an "expiry" date on things even though it is a meaningless date. Glad you did the germination test instead of just chucking it.
