Vanilla Chunk
Also known as: Vanilla Chunk OG
Vanilla Chunk Strain Overview
Vanilla Chunk is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain developed by the breeder DNA Genetics. This strain is a cross between the popular indica strain LA Confidential and the hybrid strain Chocolope, combining the relaxing properties of its indica heritage with some uplifting sativa characteristics from its Chocolope parent. The strain was created to produce a flavorful, potent indica with a unique aromatic profile that distinguishes it from other heavy indica varieties.
Visually, Vanilla Chunk plants produce dense, chunky buds that are typically medium to large in size, with a structure that reflects its indica dominance. The flowers are often forest green with occasional purple hues that may appear under cooler growing conditions, and are covered in a generous coating of trichomes that give the buds a frosty appearance. The strain's name derives from its distinctive aroma profile, which combines sweet vanilla notes with earthy, hash-like undertones.
Vanilla Chunk is known for its potent effects that lean heavily toward physical relaxation while maintaining some cerebral clarity. The strain has gained popularity among indica enthusiasts who appreciate its balanced effects and complex flavor profile. While not as widely available as some mainstream strains, Vanilla Chunk has developed a dedicated following among connoisseurs who seek out its unique combination of flavors and effects.

Vanilla Chunk Strain Growing Information
Vanilla Chunk is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, making it better suited for growers with some experience. The plants have an indica-dominant structure, typically reaching a medium height of 3-4 feet indoors and 4-6 feet outdoors. Flowering time is approximately 8-9 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests usually ready by mid to late October in the Northern Hemisphere.
Indoor growers can expect yields of around 14-16 ounces per square meter, while outdoor plants may produce 16-20 ounces per plant under optimal conditions. The strain prefers a warm, Mediterranean-like climate when grown outdoors and responds well to both soil and hydroponic growing methods. Vanilla Chunk plants benefit from regular pruning and training techniques like topping or low-stress training to maximize light penetration and air circulation through the canopy.
Special considerations include maintaining stable temperature and humidity levels, particularly during the flowering phase to prevent mold development in the dense buds. The plants have moderate nutrient requirements and may show sensitivity to overfeeding. Growers should monitor for common cannabis pests, though the strain shows average resistance to most pathogens.
