1972 UMS Turkey T C Reproduction is a reproduction accession of Cannabis sativa grown from seed recorded as coming from Turkey. It is known from eleven herbarium sheets gathered between 31 July and 1 August 1972 by Richard Evans Schultes, Timothy Plowman and T. E. Lockwood in the National Institute of Mental Health Cannabis Garden of the University of Mississippi School of Pharmacy. The labels carry the lot code T C and call it the third seed lot, planted on 5 May 1972. The sheets are held in the Economic Botany Herbarium of the Harvard University Herbaria.[1]
Seed lot
Every label reads Turkish, third seed lot. Planted 5 May 1972, one with the date written 5-5-1972.[1][2] Seven labels of the T A1 lot (UMS-TUR-UNK-0019720001-R1) call it the first seed lot, first generation. That season the garden also grew the Turkish original sample T A (UMS-TUR-UNK-0019720001) and lots coded T A1, T A2 and T A3, which the labels call its generations. Earlier Turkish seed had been grown at the university under M. W. Quimby's codes MS-SDD, MS-SEE, MS-SPP and MS-SY in 1970 (UMS-TUR-UNK-0019700001, UMS-TUR-UNK-0019700002, UMS-TUR-UNK-0019700003, UMS-TUR-UNK-0019700004) and MS-SFF, MS-SGG and MS-SHHH in 1971 (UMS-TUR-UNK-0019710001, UMS-TUR-UNK-0019710002, UMS-TUR-UNK-0019710003).
Grow-out
The garden lay on university land at University, in Lafayette County, Mississippi. The sheets of this lot carry ten plant numbers, from 65 A to 65 J, one letter to a plant.[1] In 1968 the National Institute of Mental Health offered a contract for the supply of standardised marijuana to researchers, and Norman Doorenbos, who chaired the university's Department of Pharmacognosy, won it. The university's own account of the programme says that the first experimental plot, grown that year, was sown with seed from Mexico, Panama, Southeast Asia, Korea, India, Afghanistan, Iran, Pakistan and Lebanon, and that a secured garden was built in 1969 for the first substantial crop.[3] Schultes and his co-authors later wrote that their collections and studies in the extensive Mississippi plantation and elsewhere had shown that the characters of growth habit in cannabis seemed to be genetically stable.[4]: 356
Specimens and identification
The original label name is Cannabis sp. On 16 February 1976 Ernest Small determined ten of the sheets as Cannabis sativa Linnaeus, the name under which Harvard files all eleven; Harvard records no determiner for sheet 01005309.[1][5] That sheet was used in the Economic Botany teaching collection at Harvard and returned to the herbarium in May 2000.[5]
