Deep Chunk F15
Also known as: Deep Chunk IBL, Tom Hill's Deep Chunk
Deep Chunk F15 Strain Overview
Deep Chunk F15 is a stabilized inbred line (IBL) of the original Deep Chunk strain, developed and refined over 15 generations of selective breeding by legendary breeder Tom Hill. The strain traces its origins to the Hindu Kush mountain region of Afghanistan and Pakistan, where its landrace ancestors evolved in harsh, high-altitude environments. This genetic heritage gives Deep Chunk F15 exceptional stability and uniformity, making it a prized breeding tool and a classic example of pure indica genetics preserved through meticulous selection.
The strain is characterized by its extremely compact, bushy growth structure with very short internodal spacing and broad, dark green leaves that often develop purple hues in cooler temperatures. The buds are dense, resinous, and typically small to medium in size, covered in a thick layer of trichomes that give them a frosty appearance. Deep Chunk F15 is renowned for its earthy, hash-like aroma with notes of pine, spice, and damp soil, reflecting its Afghan heritage. The smoke is smooth and heavy, with a flavor profile that emphasizes its earthy, woody characteristics.
Notable features include its exceptional resin production, making it popular for hash and concentrate production, and its remarkable genetic stability achieved through Tom Hill's 15-generation breeding project. The F15 designation indicates it has been bred true to type through 15 filial generations, resulting in plants that exhibit minimal phenotypic variation. This strain is considered a living genetic archive of pure Afghan indica genetics and is highly valued by preservationists and breeders seeking to incorporate stable, heavy indica traits into their projects.

Deep Chunk F15 Strain Growing Information
Deep Chunk F15 is considered moderately easy to grow, particularly suitable for beginners due to its resilience and stable genetics. Flowering time is approximately 8-9 weeks indoors. The strain produces relatively low to moderate yields compared to modern hybrids, but makes up for this with exceptional resin production. It thrives in both indoor and outdoor environments, though it prefers a dry climate similar to its native habitat. Plants typically remain very short, rarely exceeding 3-4 feet in height even outdoors, making them excellent for stealth grows or limited spaces. Special considerations include maintaining low humidity during flowering to prevent mold (due to dense bud structure), providing good air circulation, and avoiding overwatering as the plants are sensitive to root issues. The strain responds well to low-stress training but is not ideal for high-stress techniques due to its slow growth and recovery.
