Thai Stick Loei by The Landrace Team
Heirloom Thai Sativa × High-yielding, aroma-rich phenotypes
Thai Stick Loei by The Landrace Team is a sativa strain paying homage to traditional Thai cannabis. It is recognized for its potent effects and distinctive aromatic profile, blending heritage genetics with modern breeding.
Appearance
Thai Stick Loei plants present dense, elongated buds with a frosty trichome coating. The plant structure is characteristic of classic sativas, featuring airy, long leaves and an open branching pattern. Vibrant green foliage is sometimes accented with purple hues, particularly in cooler temperatures, and the buds develop into resinous colas with a conical, elongated shape.
The plants typically grow tall and lanky, reaching heights between 150-200 cm outdoors, with long internodes that promote good airflow. Visual cues like pistil and trichome color changes reliably indicate cannabinoid maturity for harvest.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of Thai Stick Loei is complex and multi-layered, featuring notes of earthiness, herbs, and pine. Undertones of lemon and tropical fruit contribute to its overall profile, complemented by a pungent and spicy aroma.
This aromatic complexity translates into a flavor profile that mirrors its scent. Consumers often detect earthy and herbal notes, intertwined with hints of lemon and pine. The experience is rounded out by a sweet and tropical taste, with a lingering spicy and pungent finish.

Origins & Lineage
Thai Stick Loei by The Landrace Team is a tribute to classic Thai sativas, preserving the genetic essence of traditional Southeast Asian landrace strains. It is believed to retain over 90% pure sativa characteristics, with its paternal lineage tracing back to heirloom Thai sativas.
The maternal side has been crossed with select high-yielding, aroma-rich phenotypes to enhance potency and sensory qualities. Modern breeding techniques were employed to stabilize the heritage, resulting in a strain that honors tradition while offering refined psychotropic properties.
Growing
Cultivating Thai Stick Loei requires attention due to its landrace sativa genetics, which can result in longer flowering periods of 10-12 weeks. The plants are naturally resilient and adaptable, thriving in diverse growing conditions with a survival rate estimated at over 85%.
The tall and lanky morphology with long internodes necessitates adequate space, especially when grown outdoors where plants can reach 150-200 cm. Its open canopy structure aids in airflow, reducing the risk of mold and pests, making it a manageable, though potentially lengthy, cultivation project.
