Krabangkham Farm General Population 2024 is a general population domesticate landrace cannabis accession documented by Éloïse and Isabella in Thailand. Seeds were sourced from Khun Suriyan in Ban Nan Toeng, Phu Phan Mountains, Sakhon Nakhon Province. This accession represents the traditional Lao-Isan landrace population cultivated using open-pollination methods.
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 ~200 meters elevation, in warm, dry tropical conditions typical of the Phu Phan Mountains.
Collection Details
Seeds were collected by Éloïse and Isabella in 2024. The accession represents the general 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. Flowering occurs under short-day conditions. Flower structure varies across the population, with dense, foxtailed, and airy colas. Terpene profile ranges from earthy spice, herbal musk, and woody undertones to sweet fruit and tropical mango notes.
Two primary expressions exist in the broader population:
Tiger Tail (Hang Suea): Bold, robust structure with thicker colas and strong lateral branching.
Squirrel Tail (Hang Krarok): Delicate, elongated, foxtail-like colas with sweet, floral, tropical fruit aromas.
This accession is cultivated for recreational and medicinal purposes, preserving traditional Lao-Isan landrace traits.
Conservation Status
This accession is preserved in the Zomia Genetic Library, currently active and viable. Cannabis cultivation is legally permitted in Thailand, and this population maintains a historically significant genetic lineage adapted to the Phu Phan Mountains.
