Coated seeds, should I wash it off?

Ordering seeds from international vendors

Continuing the discussion from Coated seeds, should I wash it off?: I’m seeing the issue of ordering seeds from an international (particularly Chinese) vendor is worthy of discussion. @MarkReed, you clearly are strongly apposed to the idea. I was not meaning to stir up the hive with my concern about coated seeds but it seems I have since you suggested I burn them! I’m open to being convinced that ordering seeds internationally is not a good idea. I don’t place a lot of international seed orders…
