Thai is a South-East Asian native that was born and bred in Thailand, with effects as exotic as its origin. This strain can be a little challenging for growers to cultivate away from the sub-topical climate it is used to, but it can be done with a little added humidity and lots of heat.
Sativa/Indica % | Indoor Yield | Outdoor Yield | Flowering Period |
100% Sativa | 13 ounces per square meter | 11 ounces or more per plant | 9 – 11 weeks indoors, late October outdoors. |
Thai is a sativa variant that stems from Thailand and was eventually brought onto American soil in the 1970’s and the 1980’s. This landrace strain is often also referred to as “Thai Sticks” because of how this bud has been known to traditionally be dried while tied onto long sticks.
Many modern hybrids were created by crossing this purebred with other designer strains, growing a legacy of its own by being present in so many places. Thai is a very strong and potent flower but is also quite enjoyable, especially if you prefer an uplifting and energizing cannabis variant.

This is the first year I’ve grown Thai. I live in a very hot and dry climate during summer months. My Thai plants started budding while the others were two weeks from harvest. This very exotic looking plant started out with long finger like buds, covered in white fur like hairs covering the buds. Now that it’s towards the end of the budding cycle, ( or should be) the flowers have bulked up significantly. I’m excited about the potential yield from this awesome plant. Although it’s now oct 31, my Thai which is growing outdoors is still weeks from being ready for harvest. I will have to bring it in before rainfall and finish the budding under lights. It by far has the largest flowers over the other 4 species I have grown. I’m a looking forward to tasting the fruits of my labor and will follow up after.
