Nevil's Tropical Chunk
Also known as: Tropical Chunk, Nevil's Chunk
What is the Nevil's Tropical Chunk strain?
Nevil's Tropical Chunk is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its euphoric effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
Nevil's Tropical Chunk is a relatively rare cannabis strain developed by the legendary breeder Neville Schoenmaker, founder of The Seed Bank (which later became Sensi Seeds). The strain represents a continuation of Schoenmaker's work with tropical genetics, combining landrace strains from equatorial regions with established Western cultivars. While less documented than some of Schoenmaker's more famous creations like Northern Lights #5 or Haze hybrids, Nevil's Tropical Chunk holds historical significance as part of the breeder's exploration of exotic genetic material during the 1980s and 1990s.
The strain exhibits characteristics typical of tropical sativas while incorporating indica influences for structure and flowering time. Plants typically display elongated, spear-shaped buds with moderate density, often showing vibrant orange pistils against a backdrop of deep green foliage. The aroma profile is complex, blending tropical fruit notes with earthy undertones and subtle fuel-like accents. The name 'Chunk' likely refers to the strain's bud structure rather than indica dominance, as the effects tend toward cerebral stimulation with gradual body relaxation.
Due to its rarity and the passage of time since its development, specific details about Nevil's Tropical Chunk are less documented than mainstream commercial strains. The strain represents an important chapter in cannabis breeding history, showcasing early efforts to preserve and work with landrace genetics from tropical regions. Cultivators and collectors value this strain for its genetic heritage and unique terpene profile, though consistent phenotypes can be challenging to find in modern markets.
