Ban Nan Toeng 'Elite' Selection #1 2024 is a selected landrace accession documented in Thailand by Eloise and Isabella. Seeds were sourced from the Nan Toeng Village Community in Ban Nan Toeng, within the Phu Phan Mountains of Sakhon Nakhon Province. This accession represents a single-plant elite selection from the broader Lao-Isan landrace population maintained through traditional open-pollination.
Geography
This accession originates from the Phu Phan Mountains in Sakhon Nakhon Province, within Isan, Thailand. Ban Nan Toeng sits on the edge of the Kut Bak plateau at 200 m elevation, characterized by a monsoonal growing cycle and dry-season harvest.
Collection Details
Collected in November 2024 from a single outstanding female plant selected for vigor, structure, and finishing time within the general population. Seeds were produced via direct seeding and traditional open-pollination.
This selection is part of a broader elite series focused on identifying early-finishing and structurally superior individuals within the Nan Toeng landrace.
Botanical Characteristics
Plants exhibit tall, narrow-leaf Southeast Asian morphology with long internodal spacing and strong apical dominance, reaching 2–3 meters in height. Flowering occurs under short-day conditions.
This elite plant expressed a structurally robust Tiger Tail type profile. Flower Structure is Dense.
The terpene expression includes earthy spice, herbal musk, woody undertones, and sweet mango-like fruit notes. Effects are clear-headed, energizing, and suitable for both recreational and medicinal applications.
Cultivation Details
Regional Planting: July - September
Regional Harvest: January - March
Height: 2–3 meters
Classification: NLD type landrace accession
Plants are grown outdoors using direct seeding and regional farming methods.
Conservation Status
While the broader population remains active, ongoing male culling has reduced effective breeding diversity. Elite selections such as this one serve as reference plants for future stabilization and conservation breeding initiatives aimed at reinforcing genetic resilience within the Nan Toeng landrace.
