LOL-thats taking it a little too far imo-i think their LA acquired genetics are legit and pouring over forums where DNA are welcome, it seems many growers are too

First of all, congratulations to Raco for another successful thread. There is no doubt that he knows how to do his thing! Greetings also to Charlie Garcia. This hybrid sounds inspiring to say the least.
Like Charlie, my experience with DC and X-18 is based on one individual from each strain (Raco's keepers, named Parineeta and XVIII respectively).
In few words, I'd say that Deep Chunk represents the Afghan pride while X-18 resembles the Pakistani workability.
Growing these two true, distinctive hash plants implies two different characters from the Hindu Kush. Deep Chunk is a whole world of particularities from clone to smoke; X-18 simply works with humility. Though its yield is average at best, X-18 shows a typical Paki stretch during the first month of flowering, but doesn't branch. In opposite, DC barely grows in height, and the yield is ridiculous.
X-18 is the smell, DC is the look. Both buds are dense and rock hard but in a different way. X-18 buds are literally crusted with resin and their manicure is very easy, while DC buds are rounded and colourful with exotic patterns (the weed looks out of this world).
In flower, the X-18 reeks of cheese and chorizo. The smell develops along the flowering but it's always very pungent. The smell of the herbal cannabis when finished and dried is more acrid and citric, almost acid. Deep Chunk smell consistently like moss, a bit musty; it remembers me the smell of the asparagus soup.
Last but not least, the effect. While both plants are absolutely medicinal, Deep Chunk is more of a consistent experience, and X-18 can put your head to spin. I mean, both genetics have wonderfully balanced resin profiles, but the Afghan has a constant effect (floaty and numbing at times), while the Paki can sit with the smoker in different ways (relaxed or brainstormed) depending on the person and the circumstances.
Everytime I taste the X-18, think its active compounds profile is so well balanced that I almost don't feel stoned, so I tell everybody when they try it for the first time. However, I end up watching some kind of alarm in their eyes often. Therefore, I'd say it can hit hard
Greetings,
