Default hay mulch

i was wondering if anyone uses hay as mulch in their vegetable garden? will
it increase the weed problem if it has gone to seed?

thanks

We've been using hay mulch for years and have found that if it's put
on thick enough there is no weeds. Once the mulch rots down and weeds
finally do start poking through, we add more. We usually put mulch on
4 to 6 inches deep. It's great for worms and moisture retention too.
