I'll take some. You can let me know what the ploidy is later, but I have both 2n and 4n that I can use it with. Send me a PM for address, please.

Thank you.

Hi Andy
I have Coraki Gold plants.
Their spikes are short.
But one plant has long spikes.
Is this related with mutation or just nutrition.
Or maybe the question is if Coraki Gold spikes are short.

Fatih,

Coraki Gold was bred from an inferior Coraki and has not made any impact in commercial hybridizing. The good Coraki is 'Margaret'. the bad Coraki was 'Norah'. If you have one with a tall spike maybe it is the correct one and the smaller spikes are mutations. The Lab producing Coraki Gold was not a reputable one!

Then what you are offering is "gold" Rick. Wish I still had something to suit but we are over for the main season and looking forward to the WT stuff from now on.
