Maybe, definitely worth a try.
Soaking them for a few hours in lukewarm tea(without milk) is supposed to help break the seed coat down a bit.
Damp paper towel in a ziplock bag somewhere warm has never failed me to get germination.
Hotter varieties sometimes take longer to germinate than others but not always.I germinated sweet peppers this year that were 2 years past their ‘sow by’ date so I’d certainly give them a whirl.
I got seeds 2 years ago for Christmas. Loads, reaper, naga, bhut jolika etc. Would they still be good?
