Hard-coated seeds should not necessarily be discarded, as their tough exterior can protect them from environmental stressors and pests. However, if they show signs of damage, disease, or if they are significantly old and unviable, it may be best to discard them. Testing for germination can also help determine their viability before deciding to discard them. Ultimately, evaluate their condition and potential for growth before making a decision.
