Their Freak Chunk is actually a Spanish reproduction and they didnt do much better than CSI. Neither of those companies offerings even look like DC.
Have you grown out both lines ?

I have grown the Freak Chunk but not the one from CSI. Have only seen photos. I do have a line from Tom Hill that is very much what Deep Chunk should be.
I can offer Balkh F4, Balkh F5 Ouzbé F16(very small quantity), balo x maruf, (balo x maruf)x balkh F4, (Balo x maruf)x ouzbé F15
These are the beginnings of work aimed at diluting hermaphroditism, so we decided to stack several afghans, here the hermis was the male Maruf (very weak 4 to 5 pistils at the very beginning of flo).
The last tests only on 10 beans (I know, but I couldn't throw more), were very conclusive for me, because zero hermis, and a structural improvement which passes however by an over assembly of this one, if not too columnar for my taste, but much remains to be observed and I don't have forcement more place for that before next year, so if anyone's interested, I'll give them a piece of my work, I'm just waiting for feedback and to say who you got it from if you're using it for your own projects, I don't mind if people want to do business, but be honest about where it comes from.

I couldn't help myself, had to buy a few packs of the regular, will give them a run at some point
Helloooo Squanto, I am the lone ranger of potency.
How good of a guerrilla plant is she?
Deep chunk is over-rated, even Tom said it's mids.
Tom's thoughts on Deep Chunk from the basement.
"Deep Chunk is a Korean broadleaf I never said it was an Afghan I just meant it was like Afghan
"
"Deep Chunk. She is my favorite broad leaf of all time. She can be very cerebral and trippy indeed. Lots of folk poddy-mouthed her upon release as she can present some interesting cultivation challenges regarding structural issues. She is not a plug and play type plant that folk are used to..."

I grew 5 purple Afghans from MSNL about 4 or 5 years ago when MSNL were good not the hermie mass produced shit they sell these days.
It was the strongest sedative strain I've ever grown or smoked. Small squat plants with thick purple buds! Only got 3 pics of it in me phone.
3 cones and I was asleep 40 mins later every time!!

RealSeedCo Afgan90 grown outdoors this year 38N. Definitely fits the description by rsc. Big fat old school style buds. The plants grew very stout and wide, and the buds are large bud not super dense. #1 smells like old school romulan. Pine, fruit, and body odor. I like this smell the better of the pair #2 is denser, and has a totally different smell, I can't really describe it but it's definitely an old school smell. Slightly skunky with some sort of food spice. I think I bought a pound of afgani in SF around 2006 that smelled just like it.
I just smoked #1 for the first time tonight and it's certainly a relaxing indica without the crazy knockout effects of modern weed. Probably great for a rainy day, but your not trying to take a nap between joints.
Would I grow it again? Probably not, but that's just because I have an obsession with growing different strains. I would recommend it to someone looking for old school terp profiles, or just doesn't want a crazy knockout stone. This is a very rough guess but I'd guess the thc to be between 12-14%.

Can i ask @befa if you noticed any difference in effect of females from before/after you diluted the male hermaphrodism?

Looks amazing. Quite unexpected for Afghan but looks like old school weed when indoor buds first were available to buy.
Interesting you say it smells like old school Romulan because i also find Romulan to smell and smoke like prime old school red seal - the bright up and giggly red seal kind... Which was Afghan
Right? They remind me of what I'd drool over while browsing the first edition CannabibleLooks amazing. Quite unexpected for Afghan but looks like old school weed when indoor buds first were available to buy.

Also interesting, the leaves were quite narrow, narrower than any plant in my garden other than the landrace sativa. But as I've been learning, leaf shape is usually not the best indicator of potency or effect!

And i promised no more seeds for a while
Yesterday i was trying to justify to the little fella on my shoulder buying some good value icmag server fund seeds cos of the beautiful artwork on the packet was worth the cost in itself.
I'll readily admit i have a problem.. but those Afghan buds really get me thinking...
I’ve got an old mixed pack of early 2000 sensi seeds afghan #1 and maple leaf indica that would be interesting to pop and open pollinate…

Squanto does pretty good in a guerrilla setting because she seems to hate nutes, so as long as they're getting some decent rain there's almost no reason to visit the guerrilla spot too much. Indoors though the bag appeal goes way up. If the spot gets good sunlight they will get super tall, very similar looking as a Himalayan strain like Nepal or KumaoniHelloooo Squanto, I am the lone ranger of potency.
{Balouchistan x Maruf ( green selection )}x Balkh F4
About 3 weeks since turning over
Stockier phenotype, more precocious, more inclined towards the Balkh side.
No hermi traits, the Maruf allows me to keep its terpene side with a spicy culinary orientation and pungent toluene.
I really like this one
