Hankow General Population 1913 is a historical seed accession of Cannabis sativa that the United States Department of Agriculture received from Hankow (today part of Wuhan), in Hubei, China, on 25 April 1913 and numbered plant introduction (PI) 35251.[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's printed inventory lists the lot as hemp from Hankow, procured through Roger S. Greene, the American consul general, and received on 25 April 1913. The entry quotes the department's hemp botanist, Lyster H. Dewey, on ta ma, "the great hemp of China", grown chiefly in the Yangtze valley: seed of it had done best of all hemps in Kentucky.[2] Greene had sent ta ma seed the year before (NPG-CHN-HUB-0019120001).[3]
