Krabangkham 'Squirrel Tail' Selection 2024 is a domesticate landrace cannabis accession. This accession was documented by Isabella in February of 2025 from Suriyan, the owner of Krabangkham Farm. The seeds come from a landrace cannabis population of 500+ plants grown near Ban Nan Toeng. Ban Nan Toeng is located in Phu Phan District, Sakhon Nakhon, Thailand, within the Phu Phan Mountains landrace cannabis growing area of the Northeastern Thailand growing region.
Geography
This accession originates from the Phu Phan Mountains of Sakhon Nakhon Province, in the Isan region of northeastern Thailand. Ban Nan Toeng is a remote village on the edge of the Kut Bak plateau. Plants are grown at approximately 200 meters elevation, in warm, dry tropical conditions typical of the Phu Phan Mountains.
Collection Details
Seeds were collected by Isabella in February 26, 2025. The accession represents a deliberate selection for the distinct 'Squirrel Tail' phenotype from the general domesticate population maintained on Krabangkham Farm. Seeds are produced on-farm through direct seeding and open-pollination.
Botanical Characteristics
Plants display narrow leaves with a christmas tree growth pattern and reach 2–3 meters in height. The 'Squirrel Tail' phenotype is characterized by foxtailed, cascading colas, lighter and airier flowers, and a thick but delicate trichome coating. Terpene profile combines earthy spice, sweet tropical fruit, mango, and subtle herbal overtones. Flowering occurs under short-day photoperiod conditions.
Two primary expressions exist in the broader population:
Tiger Tail (Hang Suea): Robust structure with thick colas and strong branching; earthy spice, herbal musk, woody undertones; energizing daytime high.
Squirrel Tail (Hang Krarok): Foxtailing, elongated colas; sweet, floral, tropical fruit aromas; clean, uplifting, cerebral high.
This accession is cultivated for recreational and medicinal purposes, preserving traditional Lao-Isan landrace traits.
Cultivation Details
Regional Planting: July – September
Regional Harvest: January – March
Height: 2–3 meters
Classification: NLD type Landrace Accession
Conservation Status
This accession is preserved in the Zomia Genetic Library, currently active and viable. Cannabis cultivation is legally permitted in Thailand, and this selection preserves a historically significant genetic lineage adapted to the Phu Phan Mountains. Current seed stocks are plentiful, though modern agricultural pressures and cultural changes pose long-term risks to local landrace conservation.
