yes, depends on how far over the date though. expiry dates have to be included as a legality for sale purposes - guaranteeing that the seed is of a particular minimum germination - normally 80 or 85%.
this means that after the date has expired it can still be used, but expect the germination to be lower than the original germination at packing.
the germination will also be determined by the storage conditions of the seeds before sowing.

Seeds have a shelf life, and their viability decreases over time. While it's possible for some seeds to germinate after their expiration date, the chances of success are lower. Factors such as storage conditions and the specific type of seed can also affect its ability to germinate.

What if you drink water past the expiration date?
Not much. Expiration dates are very conservative and the water is usually still good to drink after, even weeks or months after it expires. The only problem would be that it tastes stale, since there is nothing in the water for bacteria to grow, that is no a concern for any kind of disease transmission.

Why do plants produce more seeds than will actually grow?
They actually do grow, they are just pollinated in another area. They actually do grow, they are just pollinated in another area. So that there is a greater chance of the seeds growing. Think of it this way: If a pumpkin has 500 seeds, many of them won't grow because they will be eaten or die. So lets say 300 of the seeds grow, if the pumpkin had only 300 seeds in the first place even fewer of the seeds will grow. I hope this makes sense! ;)
