Cool, keep us posted!
They look like surpassed seeds or better put, heirloom shit.... Old inferiour work that's been passed on. None of that skunk which came from SSCS was of honest pedigree, Not like the lines Nev used, the Skunk he used came from 1 source.. Because it's not part of the lines Sam brought to Holland I think they're all bunk bird seed.. The Duch buisness ment that failed.. Passed them on..
If you wish to germinate them you need to keep the endosperm alive so that they can shed the testa. Crack some open after a soak in bleech @0.5% dilution. Split a few testas with a scalpul and leave thew embryo in high humidity 70+% covered to te depth of the seed in moist seedling starter hummus with low nutriments.. No Chems whatsoever.. Maybe even source some dirt from a undisturbed agricultural land with a quality hummus..

You should be able to germinate a % of them if they were kept reasonably well.. They don't look it though..

Look guys I appreciate all the advise in regards to who made this and who had that both nevel and Sam know I have these and both have not said any thing neg about them or the guy I got them from , I don't care st all I am not letting the past destroy the future , the fact the seeds are from the 1980s is good enough for me , I'm sure the skunk which ever used is 1000 times better than the left over war Heros we have now and the haze I mean what we got now day a5 and stuff like that totally came after these seeds , if these seeds piss people off that I havnt poped them yet then sorry wait till you see my 1974 old ed seeds , get your brain round that one then lol it's all fun and love don't take it to seriously , I'm not ������

retagged. i still got some old 1994 seeds i'm trying to germ. my last 50 seeds. looking forward to seeing how yours goes. i've run through pretty much all the oldest seeds i have. my last run i did like 200. i got 3 to pop.

Looking forward to this, good luck

I bought a bunch of very old beans and I had poor germination success. then I used what I called the unfurl method and it's similar to Mate Dave's post. got pics. in my elvis album.
what often happens is that a few beans split and you can see white but no embryonic root emerges. I suspect the seeds have lost a lot of their vital energy and don't have the mojo to go any further. they need to be helped out some.
good luck. maybe you can show us a good method so many nice heirloom strains get preserved.
I have done this with success also with old seeds. I put them in pots with my flowering plants. That way I don't forget to water them. Plus the added P assists in root development.
If you want to get all technical like then I may suggest another route for you. It will require some surgery. I haven't completely researched this method, but, I know it has been done. While I was browsing through some tissue culture articles I ran across some folks using a similar method to germ old seeds. The same procedures to produce roots with plant tissue they used by removing the embryo from the seed casing. If this is what your kit is sorry for being redundant.
Hope they sprout for you.
Yes skinny! right on dude! Paper towel method is the worst thing you can do for long germing seeds,,, many will toss seed after a day or two as it didnt pop, or a few days in paper towels too long and you get mold/fungus mush death.
Soil has more going on than science understands atm.

Good luck Ganja Baba...I had 32 out of about 280 seeds sprout of old lines from between1989-98 a few years back.They were in glass or plastic vials but not refrigerated or stored well? as were returned to me after over a decade thought lost. But 14 girls and 6 boys turned out to be Superb,productive old-school plants that were well worth the hassle involved. I had most luck with some scuffing-I scuff them gently & individually with fine sandpaper,then a 12 hour soak in a 0.5 percent hydrogen peroxide water solution then a few days in bubbled pure water with B5. Ones that split at all I planted(some survived some died young) ones that didn't I cut out gently,a few of those survived too. Heres just 2 Ladies that made it worthwhile \/

i attempted to dig up a couple of the seeds i thought dead and left in the tray watering once in a while and praying for...
i found like 3 of em, i split em open gently and removed the half shell, and scraped off the little sac thing that covers the cotyledons, then i put em in the dirt shell side down...should i have gone shell side up and exposed embryo down? i covered em with a little amount of dirt enough to just cover em really. gave a light watering and i put a dome on to keep the humidity up. fingers crossed.

Yes for sure mate , and mate Dave def been reading similar thanks for pointing me in that direction , I've actually got a friend who is totally more patent than me doing this I've been sending him as much info as poss do thanks every one , that's why it had taken so long totally didn't want to rush into it as they are so rare , I would imagine it's a slim chance but totally possible .
You just need this

And what's interesting, is that the seeds doesn't sink like in glass of water, they are floating all the time, and sprout fastest ever 
Shit I knew I should have picked russian instead of mandarin as a 2nd language...
Dude it's Serbian
But you have google translator
Btw. I'm not a selling agent for that Slavol S, although I would like to be lolol, it's really magic stuff and I'm not ever germinating without it... and the bottle is dirt cheap
Edit: wtf am I talking about, there is english language option on the site lol
