Yes, that is basically the idea
I am now over 1130 hs of daylight and it seems the girls need to be below 1130 in order to flower properly
The original plan was to sex them outdoors which seems to happen much faster than ondoors and then flower them indoors to see sex and separate the intersex. Indoors they take more than 2 months to show sex on a 11/13 lighting schedule after being over 30 cms height

The seed made from the intersex Thai female that pollinized MadMac haze keeper so far is giving just one out of 8 intersex so I dont plan much, I will keep them all and then see

I have these ones sexing too, this time I understand how they are a little bit better so I hope I can reproduce them, I dont care anymore about the sex of the pollen donators. I hope to find firm females.
I have a total of 8 plants which made it through mutation stage and are proud plants out of 68 seeds and I hope to keep them all until next autumm knowing their sex

That is Laotian? Looks very much like Kroeng Krawia from Thailand.

I also have a package of Highland Thai seeds from TRS bought a few years ago but to this day I did not sow them when I read that this is not a pure Thai strain, but it can have an admixture of Chinese hemp.

This is what TRSC say about it:

This is an unusual Thai landrace from the highlands of Northern Thailand and the nearby border regions of Burma. It may have resulted through hybridisation of Yunnanese ‘chinensis’ and Thai ganja landraces. This is a process through which some Indochinese strains are believed to have originated.

This landrace is cultivated by various ethnic groups in this highland border region, including the Lahu, a trans-border hilltribe living in northern Thailand, northern Laos, Burma and Yunnan. The appearance and effect of this strain are markedly different from those of the Thai–Lao ganja genepool of the Mekong region of Isan, Northeast Thailand.

Highland Thai can grow exceptionally tall outdoors, given space, potentially reaching over 4 metres. Plants can have notably broader leaflets than typical Sativa-type Thai ganja landraces. Seeds are large and stems are hollow, also suggesting a genetic connection to Yunnanese seed and fibre landraces. Planted close or in restricted areas, plants grow to a single stem.
This is a pure landrace strain grown for ganja - its not a drug cultivar that has been "contaminated" with hemp, but a landrace that has been grown for generations on the Thai/Burma border they suspect originated "through hybridisation of Yunnanese ‘chinensis’ and Thai ganja landraces". I've grown this one before and recommend that you give it a chance - the buds are not wispy or hempy weak - they are decent solid nugs with great terps and a clear clean high.

I'd like to post more but just busy with things. I have several Thai types going this season. A few are not in the ground but in fabric grow bags which is always more challenging because keeping them in top health for so long is challenging. Anyway at some point I'll try to share pics of them too.
This is Nong Khai. This northeast Thai province is on the south side of the Mekong river across from Vientiane Laos. It was known for Thai stick production some 50 years ago or so but much of that was pushed out over to Laos by the Thai government. This was sourced by a seed collecting friend living in Thailand who is quite knowledgeable so I trust the info although I did not get specific details about it. So far it fits the profile.

It's been a healthy plant and gotten quite tall. About 11-12 ft or 3.5 m. Flowering well I'd guess it will finish in about 5-6 weeks. Hopefully weather conditions don't get rough. Especially in the final 3 weeks. The shovel
in the shadow in front is to give some sense of scale. To the right is an ACE Golden Tiger which is much closer to finished. Mostly hidden behind it is a "Giant Thai stick" plant. The seed came out of a Thai stick in Thailand and so has no more source info than that. However, I will say that it is really similar to the Nong Khai. Certainly they share a lot and seem very closely related although it could easily be from plants grown in Laos.
