Kangwon General Population 1916 is a historical seed accession of Cannabis sativa that the United States Department of Agriculture received from Korea, by way of Yokohama, on 2 May 1916 and numbered plant introduction (PI) 42611.[1] No seed of the lot survives. The National Plant Germplasm System, whose database carries the department's introductions, says the accession "no longer exists and can not be requested".[1]
The lot
The department procured the seed from the Yokohama Nursery Company through Lyster H. Dewey of the Bureau of Plant Industry, and received it on 2 May 1916. Its printed inventory heads the lot "From Yokohama, Japan" and prints a note by S. Iida on where the hemp came from: "Produced in Kogen Do (Kang Won), a northeastern province back of Seoul, facing the Japan Sea."[2]
