Ta Lo Farm Squirrel Tail Selection 2024 is a domesticate landrace cannabis accession collected from the Ta Lo family in Kut Bak district of Sakhon Nakhon Province, in Isan, Thailand. The accession represents a selected expression of the locally recognized “Squirrel Tail” phenotype (Thai: หางกระรอก) within the broader Lao-Isan landrace population cultivated in the Phu Phan Mountains.
This accession was collected at point of origin by Isabella of the Zomia Collective during fieldwork in January 2025. The plants belong to a traditional open population maintained through open-pollination and are cultivated primarily for ganja production used for both recreational and medicinal purposes.
Geography
Ta Lo Farm is located within Kut Bak district of Sakhon Nakhon Province in the upland agricultural region of Isan, Thailand. The area forms part of the Phu Phan Mountains landscape, a low mountain range that has historically supported traditional cannabis cultivation.
Fields in the region typically occur on the Kut Bak plateau at approximately 200 meters elevation. The climate is tropical monsoon with a pronounced rainy season followed by a dry winter period, conditions well suited to seasonal landrace cannabis cultivation.
Collection Details
Seeds for Ta Lo Farm 'Squirrel Tail' Selection 2024 were collected directly from the Ta Lo family farm. The accession represents a phenotypic selection from a larger domesticate landrace population grown using traditional open-pollination methods.
During fieldwork conducted in January 2025, plants expressing the distinctive “Squirrel Tail” morphology were selected for preservation by the farmer Ta Lo. Seeds were collected and archived as part of the Zomia Collective’s ongoing documentation and conservation work in the Phu Phan Mountains.
Botanical Characteristics
Plants belonging to the Ta Lo Farm population display the typical morphology of Lao-Isan narrow leaf drug type landraces. Individuals commonly reach heights between 2 and 3 meters and exhibit a Christmas tree growth pattern with long internodal spacing and narrow leaflets.
The Squirrel Tail phenotype is characterized by elongated foxtailed flower structures forming cascading floral clusters. Flowers are typically airy and resinous, producing abundant seeded colas consistent with traditional ganja cultivation.
Aromatic expression across the population ranges from earthy spice and herbal musk to sweeter tropical notes including mango and floral undertones. Psychoactive effects are generally described as clear, energetic, and long-lasting.
Conservation Status
The Ta Lo Farm landrace population remains actively cultivated, though the number of plants maintained by individual farms is relatively small compared to village-wide populations such as those found in Ban Bua. Approximately 500 plants are estimated within the cultivated population represented by this accession.
Like many traditional cannabis populations in Isan, the long-term stability of the Ta Lo Farm population faces pressures from modern agricultural practices and increasing emphasis on seedless flower production. Excessive removal of male plants can reduce genetic diversity and create population bottlenecks.
Conservation efforts by the Zomia Collective aim to document these populations and support farmers who maintain traditional open-pollination practices in the Phu Phan Mountains.
