China Yunnan
China Yunnan
Also known as: Yunnan
Overview
China Yunnan is a rare indica-dominant landrace strain (80% indica/20% sativa) originating from the Yunnan province in southern China, which borders Myanmar, Laos, and Vietnam. This exotic strain represents a possible genetic bridge between classical indicas and South Asian sativas, displaying characteristics of both lineages. The variety was preserved and cultivated by ACE Seeds to maintain genetic diversity and support breeding projects. China Yunnan exhibits robust, compact growth with broad indica leaves and hash plant appearance, while retaining subtle sativa influences visible in some phenotypes through taller, more branched structures with narrower leaves. The strain is valued for its heavy resin production, resilience in cultivation, and unique genetic profile that has remained relatively unchanged due to its landrace origins. Laboratory genetic analysis confirms this variety possesses a unique genotype with moderate genetic variability, making it an excellent parent for breeding programs seeking to incorporate ancient Asian genetics.

Growing Information
China Yunnan is suitable for indoor and outdoor cultivation. Indoor flowering time is 8-9 weeks, while outdoor harvest occurs in late September to early October. The strain produces medium to high yields and grows to short-medium height. It prefers stable temperatures, dry environments, and abundant nutrients for optimal production. Indoor plants develop columnar growth with large central buds, while outdoor plants become more branched with extended growing time. Production may decrease with lower temperatures during late flowering, though resin quality improves in colder conditions. The strain is considered moderately easy to grow with good resilience.
