They said a match box with sand paper in it works a treat somewhere just shake seeds around in it.
Edit: I have never tried it so no idea if it actually works

I still got 9 tooth decays and 5 NCH
I'm soaking some old trans Siberian in a cup. See how that goes. Then paper towel for a day or 2. If it goes good I will try sprouting my mephisto seeds again. Throwing the trans outdoors. It's an auto. 5 year old seeds

If it's any inspiration to you to give it a go with old seeds, I discovered an old film canister in the fridge a few years ago. A slip of paper inside with the seeds in my own handwriting just said "Zim". It took me awhile to realise that they were seeds that I brought back with me from Zimbabwe in '92. They would have to have been approaching 25 years old.
There were 40-50 seeds in the canister & thought WTF, I'll just do them all (no expectations). Chucked them in between moist Swispers (those cotton make-up removal pads that I pinched from the missus) in a few small, shallow Asian sauce dishes. No pre-soaking, no roughing-up, nothing. I think I got about 8-10 successful germinations & hurriedly started researching how to grow weed (guess how I ended-up here?
). 25 year-old seeds with that kind of success rate!?!?!?!?!I fucked-up just about everything with the actual grow & rabbits/roo's ate most of them out in the bush. 'Didn't end-up with much smoke out of it, but gave me inspiration to learn more. If only I knew then what I know now, I could've done a lot better & been able to create seeds for sharing.

That is pretty damn cool and definitely some inspiration that I won't be totally wasting my time.If it's any inspiration to you to give it a go with old seeds, I discovered an old film canister in the fridge a few years ago.

I won't count on any germinating towards my plans and if I get a few (only 10 seeds) then bonus.
Cheers, mate.

Might be worth giving them a wash in some diluted H2O2 beforehandThat is pretty damn cool and definitely some inspiration that I won't be totally wasting my time.

I pop them between my teeth, your saliva contains the enzyme amylase which can help germination

It's the Super Silver Sour Diesel Haze.
I really wanted to try it back in the Overgrow days.

Hopefully you get a few to pop, could be something really different ( in a good way ) in that cross

Strangely enough, I'm gonna have to agree with you on this old wives tale.
I'm familiar with manipulating Alpha & Beta Amylase, but never researched Gamma ('Though I knew about it).
