Rain at last

Woke up this morning to be confronted with rain, so at last some conditions that may get the growing underway on the wicket. I'm still slightly concerned that the seeds that I've used are past their sell by date and the reason for the there not being any real growth is this? This rain is due to be around for the next 3 days on and off and then followed by sunshine and warmer weather so if the seeds are okay surely this'll be the kick that's needed to get them going?
