Mekhong Classic Regular

Description from Ace Seeds

A Heritage Selection from the Mekong River

Mekhong is a rare heirloom lineage sourced from an ancient collection maintained by a 91-year-old grower for multiple generations. Named after the river that defines the border between Laos and Thailand, this strain represents one of the oldest and most authentic lineages discovered in the region.

Resilience and Characteristics

This variety is prized for its exceptional resin production and robust compound profile. It is highly resistant to pests and mold, demonstrating a remarkable ability to thrive in harsh, unfriendly environments. While it excels in hot tropical and subtropical outdoor climates, growers should be prepared for a more demanding cultivation process in temperate zones or indoor settings.

Cultivation Notes

Mekhong is a slow-flowering variety that prefers to remain intact; it reacts poorly to pinching, defoliation, or cutting and may hermaphrodite under significant stress.

Flavor and Cannabinoid Profile

The terpene profile is characterized by distinct notes of green apple. While typically rich in THC, some specimens exhibit a balanced 1:1 THC:CBD ratio reaching up to 14% for each, with CBG almost consistently present across the lineage.
