anyone know exactly what strain of P. Somniferum most of the store bought baking poppyseeds are? I would hate to be over paying if I can get the same thing around the corner.

well whatever it is in the store, its a strain that has pods that create a lot of seeds, not for its opium content. its harder to get those to grow as they have usuallybeen on some shelf for quite a while, but if you got some i wouldnt expect much opium-wise.

They will do fine. We only use organic poppy seeds (sold for baking purposes) for planting: They grow fine. And opium wise they are the top. On the TasAlk site they say that they, among providing the 25% percent, or so, of the worlds morphine, manufacture most of the worlds culinary poppy seeds. The seed poppies and opium poppies are the same! Makes sense doesn't it? Two high quality products (seeds AND alkaloids) from one crop. The exception are Dutch poppies, which are mostly grown for their seeds. But I know for personal experience that even they have ample amounts of righteous alkaloids. And are worth being grown for their 'beauty'.
Here is a pic of a Dutch poppy field we visitted in 2004.
