Seed questions

[Jonro]

The seeds swim has bought to make tea a few times have been a blueish colour, Swim also bought a small quantity of fresh seeds for planting that were a white colour.

Now as swim understands it, the blue seeds swim bought are treated and washed for intended food consumption, but swim found today in a little indian food store some seeds that look fresh and untreated(white) with a few other bits of plant matter here and there.

So is swim right in his assumption that whitish seeds are untreated seeds and the blue ones from supermarkets and such are washed and treated?

Swim is already careful with the seed tea cause potency can vary greatly(drinks slowly) but should swim be extra careful with these seeds if they are unwashed seeds?

Cheers for any help
