If they are by any chance still alive and sprouting, plant them immediately. Seeds should be planted immediately after soaking for a few hours or overnight. If they become overly fermented, or if they are allowed to dry out after the soaking, they will not grow. Next time, plant them in the rain if need be. They are already wet!
