I'm wanting to know I VA gold and Virginia gold are the same in that VA is short for virginia or are they 2 seperate strains?
If one of them came from here: http://www.onlinetobaccoseedstore.com/cigarette-types/cigarette-types-u-to-z/virginian-gold-1
You best call them and ask them the name. Last year Virginia Gold #1 was K326. The Virginia Golds #2 & #3 were of a hybrid virginia. The names are just made up names. The real variety behind the name may even change from year to year and still be called Virginia Gold #1. Jessica didn't like that at all. I think Sky supplies them seed, but he doesn't have any say on the names used. The seed are good, the commercial rebranding is what I don't like. Anyway, find out if you can so you don't mix the legitimate Virginia Gold (which I think has it's own PI number) with the rebranded for commercial purposes Virginia Gold #1, which is something else entirely.
I made note of that since I have my plants (Va Gold seed from you)seed head bagged.The seed I sent you, I labeled va gold. It is Virginia Gold, originally from "Seedman". In his catalog it is labeled TA-202, Virginia Gold.
Can you save seed from K326?
Thats good to know. Did you like it?Yes. I saved some from my 2013 grow and they passed the germination test with flying colors.
