Deep Kill
Deep Kill
Overview
Deep Kill is a hybrid cannabis strain created by Lucky 13 Seed Company that represents essentially a re-creation of the legendary BC Roadkill Skunk. This extremely pungent cultivar was developed by crossing BC Roadkill Skunk with Deep Chunk, strategically designed to tame the frustratingly floppy structure of the RKS clone with the robust and stocky Deep Chunk framework. The breeding project aimed to preserve the intense skunk characteristics while improving plant structure and stability. Two main phenotypes are present in this lineage: a taller, more sativa-leaning expression that favors the RKS mother but with much improved bud structure and resin production, and a shorter, more indica variety that takes after the Deep Chunk father without being as short and bushy as the parent strain.
Deep Kill maintains the extremely pungent characteristics that made BC Roadkill Skunk famous, ensuring all phenotypes express a level of potent pungency that has become increasingly rare in modern cannabis breeding. The strain produces thick, dense buds with excellent resin production and maintains the classic "dead skunk" aroma profile with citrus undertones. The Deep Chunk genetics not only improve plant structure but also contribute their own classic Afghani funk to the aromatic profile, creating a complex and powerful scent that can be detected from considerable distances.

Growing Information
Deep Kill has a flowering time averaging 9 weeks, though the breeder recommends taking plants down at 10 weeks for a more full-bodied and less heady effect. The strain performs best in a very dry environment with decreasing nighttime temperatures that are gradually chilled around week 6 of bloom. Following VPD charts is not recommended with this strain, and ensuring adequate dry-backs in the growing medium is essential. The strain can be grown both indoors and outdoors, with indoor cultivation being preferred. Plants exhibit two main phenotypic expressions: RKS-leaning phenotypes are taller with more branchy structure, thin-fingered leaves, and longer internode spacing, while Deep Chunk phenotypes are shorter and more compact. Out of 100 seeds, expect about a 70-30 split favoring Deep Chunk to RKS phenotypes. The strain is considered moderately difficult to grow due to its specific environmental requirements.
