Just found 3 lbs of clover seed my son left in barn last year . Any good after freezing temps last winter? Using for food plot.

Ive had no problems with leftover clover...just my experience.

I try to store seed as recommended because it can be killed. But I do keep seed for years and often improperlty stored.

There's lots of seeds mixed into the soil. Its referred to as the "seed bank". It gets wet occasionally. It gets hot and cold occasionally. A lot of the seed is many years old by the time it gets a chance to germinate. That breaks the rules for how seed is supposed to be stored. Yet if you disturb the soil, it springs to life. If nature honored the rules for seed storage, the planet would be barren.

Clover seed can be used after long storage no problem

Planted some in my food plot late last year never seen any sign of it after that I checked this spring and nothing still not just clover but a mix.

good cow feed. get clover all over the pasture

The government has a huge seed storage facility deep in a mountain in the Rockies. In case of disaster. I don't know how often or even if they ever change seed out for new seed.

Thanks for the responses.

many places recommend freezing the seed first to break the outer shell, i done it and have had great results

Sprinkle some in a container of dirt and water. See if they germinate.

Yep, I do that with seed I have had for years. You can do it mid winter indoors to see. Count the seeds you plant in the container so you know ~% of germination you will have.

Won't be a problem at all. If it was inoculated it should be reinoculated before planting.
