I recently moved from N. Alabama to Eastern Kentucky. In that move, some boxes were mixed up and my whole seed stash ended up locked in a hot car for a day. The temperature outside was most likely 80-90 degrees. I don't feel comfortable offering those seeds without getting advice.

Is it okay to offer those seeds if I make a note?


Unless you have some super sensitive seeds they will be fine. Go ahead and offer them, but do note that they were in the car for the day, that way anyone who doesn't want to try them can opt out.

I have recently done a seed sprouting test - a re-do from one I did a few years ago using the same seeds. The seeds are over 20 years old and have been stored in a metal storage unit - no climate control, or an un-insulated garage, for more than 10 of those years. Most of them sprouted just fine, only had a bit of trouble with the Chinese cabbage, but even some of them still sprouted. When I get the video edited - new at that, taking a long time, I'll share the link.
