It depends on the type of vegetable and the conditions in which they are kept. Percentage viability will always drop off over the years.
You can buy vegetable seeds at most hardware stores in the spring of each year. If you do not have a hardware store, the Internet is also a good resource. Garden Harvest Supply offers many different vegetable seeds for purchase.
seeds are of many types it may be fruit or vegetable when we discuss about seed its a coman seed
Typically, one vegetable seed should be planted per hole.
vegetable seeds are not all that expensive anyway but you an go to your local flower or garden shop and ask to for the seeds of which ever youd like to grow. many local grocer stores may have them as well. usually around a dollar or two dollars a package. they can be found many places if you cannot find them though you can order them on line if it is an unusual vegetable.

A fruitAnything that you think is a vegetable (like squash and tomatoes) but has seeds, is a fruit.Remember: fruits have seeds, vegetables DO NOT!!!
That depends on the variety. Many, if not most, store bought veggies are hybrids, genetically modified or irradiated and will not produce good, grow-able seeds.Experiment is the answer. Gather and plant your seeds. If they sprout at all, you should have a nice plant for your new garden.
Not sure but they are good anyway,as many are.
Yes, vegetable seeds do expire—but "expire" doesn't mean they suddenly go bad; rather, their germination rate declines over time. 🧪 Seed Viability Over Time Each seed type has a typical shelf life under good storage conditions (cool, dry, dark): Vegetable Average Viability Lettuce 5-6 years Tomato 4-6 years Carrot 3-4 years Corn 1-2 years Onion 1-2 years Beans/Peas 3-4 years Cucumber 5-6 years Spinach 2-3 years 📉 What Happens As Seeds Age? Germination rates drop: Fewer seeds will sprout. Weaker seedlings: Older seeds may produce less vigorous plants. Uneven growth: If germination is sporadic, you’ll get spotty garden rows. ✅ How to Tell If Seeds Are Still Good Germination Test: Place 10 seeds on a damp paper towel. Fold and place in a plastic bag in a warm spot for a few days. Count how many sprout. 8 sprouts = 80% viability (still good). Fewer than 5 = consider replacing. 🌡️ How to Store Seeds to Prolong Life Cool: 40–50°F (fridge works well). Dry: Moisture destroys viability. Dark: Sunlight degrades quality. Use airtight containers with silica gel packets if possible. #JAIDIXIT
A fruit always has seeds of some description inside, for example: tomato, cucumber, and orange. A vegetable usually does not.If it continues to ripen after it is picked, it is a fruit. If it does not continues to ripen after it is picked, it is a vegetable
