Carolyn does the same thing as I do with old seeds as fare as I know.
I think my oldest is some that were around 10 or 15 years old.
instructions are soak seeds overnight or longer in water with a pinch of the blue stuff. (MG)
The seeds that sink should sprout but it can take a while sometimes even 15 to 20 days.
Some very old seeds she sent me some time ago had a very good germination rate at over 10 years old.
Seeds from 2009 should be a breeze to sprout I dont even consider them old.

I hope this helps.
