Hey Legend, that would be a real drag. I read somewhere that if you are having trouble germinating older seeds, you can try leaving the seeds in a plastic bag with a banana peel for a few days. Evidently the Ethylene gas being expelled from the banana peel encourages germination. This method is also said to produce more female seeds if you are using an unfeminized run. I'll see if I can't find the article or thread I read it on for you...
