The game gives me the impression that you can choose from among the poisons you have accumulated to poison your weapon with that skill. However, I have not found any way to select which poison you can use. I have both normal and minor poison in my inventory at present and it simply seems to default. I'd like to be able to tailor which I use according to the strength of the enemy I am facing.
Can it be done? Does anyone know how? I would have thought it would work like deadly gift, where you can select which trap you wish to set.

Indeed, you can, but it is not a friendly method.
Firstly, you need to “guess” merely by logic at which poison is a stronger one.
In my humble opinion, poison from mushrooms is widely accepted to be the most potent especially those found underground in caves or dungeons. You may not find such mushrooms around you when you need it desperately but you could find garbage from which a lesser potent poison could be extracted.
Your inventory shall keep each poison type separated from the others and you may not find a number increment attached to the same size of flask.
When you select the “poison weapon” skill to apply it to the currently equipped weapon, the game takes the first poison it finds in the queue, which you could verify on any trade interface. Therefore, put away all the poison you do not want to use out of your inventory and then select the one that you wish to use first followed by the others or not until you poison your weapon. This is not a good thing to do during battle so be prepared.
On the other hand, you may wish to throw garbage poison at your foes as the flask breaks on ground and they start twitching, which delays them dramatically while wield your weapon at them.
Good luck.
