To see if your seed is any good you can do a germination test. Line a plate with paper towels, put 100 seeds on top of the paper towels, then put more paper towels on top of the seeds, put enough water on it to make it moist and put it in a window sill that will expose it to the sun. Keep it moist for a few days and the seeds will sprout. If they dont sprout after a week your seed is no good. Be sure to keep it moist. I find using lots of paper towels helps to keep it moist. If you only get 50 or 60% germination you can adjust your seeding rate accordingly. The only way I know to find out if it is winter or spring wheat is to plant it, if it heads out this year, its spring wheat, if it doesnt, its winter wheat, and it should grow back and head out next year. Have fun.
