Default Does Grass seed go bad?

wrote:

wet a paper towel, place 20-30 grass seeds in a row. roll towel, put in
plastic bag
and stick on top of frig. or other warm place. come back in a few days open
and see
how many sprouted. germination tests are generally done to see if seeds are
viable.
otherwise isnt worth it to try to use it to seed.


And if it is not good, just spread it on your lawn as if it was good.
Or you can do that anyway and skip putting a bag on the frig. That seems
infinitely easier and better than filling up a land fill.
