Since i’m about to grow the latest DLA, I realized how difficult it was to procure information. I’m not putting pictures because those can be found on Instagram and other forums. I’m here just to provide as much information as I can on these crosses. They all look like really resinous hashplants. It seems Bodhi stopped releasing descriptions after the first few.
They all seem to be very unique and interesting indicas. The kind which don’t just put you to sleep but also can open your mind and take you to all kinds of places. I’ve heard more than a few heads say that they thought the magic was in tropical sativas only to find that these central Asian indica type plants were what they ultimately always thought of as “the best.”
Most of these packs were limited releases.
Deep line alchemy
“the deep line alchemy series is usually comprised of hashplants and vintage afghani combinations. plants that really shine in the resin collection. the highs are deep and narcotic with an open mind, with heavy hashy herby earthy aromas, an ode to the garda, charas, and hand rubs of yesturyear…”
#01 M8 (lost kush) x fantasy island
“these seeds represent a new series of side projects using some of the rarest clones in my collection combined with a select polyhybrid father, coaxing out the special traits of the mother and bringing in new life and subtle accents from the poly father. i call it deep line alchemy because of the nature of the mothers used, very old, unique, strange, or unheard of gems. this first release uses the m8 or lost kush, a friend payed 10g for this clone in the late nineties with severe penalties if it was ever released. the original holders lost it to spider mites, and although they tried to get her back, it never happened. shes definetly an old lowland kush type, with beautiful almost etherial look, totem pole structure, silver hued frost, and a unique hairspray aroma. using the fantasy island (urkle x appalachia) father, the goal is to create more side branching, vigor, yeild, and add a lavender cherry violet terpene signature to the mix while maintaing the beauty, shimmer, and effect of the m8…
deep meditation went into the selection of parents but this hybrid is currently in testing and is still an experiment genetic remixing untill the flowers reveal their essence…”
#02 Dustys Snow Bud Black Afghani x 88g13hp
“This release uses Dustys Snow Bud an old mid eighties black Afghani Kush line from the central coast. It is very similar in effect to the Hollywood Pure Kush without the insane stretch. The effect is a total mind body experience. Deep and rich, dreamy & healing. Pairing it with the 88G13HP breathes new life into the old DSB clone by bringing the genetic timeline back to the 80’s era pure Afghani and family Kush lines. It will be a treasure trove of deep dark old line central Asian expression.”
#03 a35 x 88g13hp
“a35 is short for 35 year old afghani…”
#04. Kashmir 22 x 88g13hp
“the kashmir line is a traditional hash line from the azad region between pakistan and india. combined with the 88g13hp, its all about heavy resin and body relaxation…”
#05. a1 Artifact x 88g13hp
“Some of those old afgani’s are amazing and that’s kinda what I’m excited this year. I’m doing a lot of really old weird afgani’s outside. I’m doing like my artifact 1 which is kind of like the afgani that everybody remembers, but no one has been able to procure. Like that super acrid, almost roadkill, like cabbage-y, kind of like a deep chunky but not as bland as deep chunk. kind of like this really raw. kind of like I don’t know, smells kind of like a prison basketball game.”
“I’m pretty excited about this new afgani male that I’m working with… it’s so acrid. It’s like gamey. It’s not like roadkill, but it’s like this whole other thing and these artifact 1’s, these old vintage afgani’s that I’m finally popping, they have that. And I’m so excited and it’s so gross and it makes me so happy…”
“I had kind of offline old friend that owed me a favor, so he gave me some really rare seeds and it just said roadkill and it was an old vintage line from Nor Cal. I was like oh cool this is going to be neat like I thought maybe it would be a roadkill skunk, or something, but it just turned out to be a really like vintage old super gross afgani and I was like ok these are cool, so instead of calling it roadkill because it not because people get so uptight these days if it’s not exactly how they remember it. It’s not roadkill king of thing, so I just called it artifact A1 or afgani artifact 1. It’s that true acrid artifact that no one’s really coming up with, but I know existed.”
#06. Iraqi Rayna x 88g13hp
a collaboration with Strayfox Gardens. The Iraqi mother was supposedly brought back by Strayfox’s brother who was a veteran serving there.
#07. Old Mother Ghani x 88g13hp
“omg is a seedline i got long ago as old afghani from a private collector. its a beautiful lemon spice classic vintage commercial afghani. leans more to the hindu kush side then the acrid leathery stout plains afghani. has a perfect mind/body mix. i use both a male and a female from the line, the male is so resinous you can make hash from him.”
#08. Vintage Pure Afghan x 88g13hp
Reports of melon, lemon and incense while being easy to grow.
#09. Kush 4 x 88g13hp
"The Maple Leaf came from a guy known to me as Jim Ortega. We traded seeds for a while. Not only did he supply me with Maple Leaf, but also Garlic Bud and Kush 4. The cannabis smoking world owes him a lot.
The Maple Leaf line provided me with a plant that I labeled Afghan T. This plant is the mother of Super/Ultra Skunk and also crossed well with HzC.
Kush 4, I crossed with NL2(which had the same Kush smell) and this Kush Hybrid is the foundation of todays Kush lines.
Garlic bud has also made it’s presence felt and is part of todays super yielders.
Let me say one more thing about ML AfgT. This plant had exactly the same smell as Sams best SK1 but more so. It is the true Skunk archetype. I do not believe for one N.Y. minute that Afghani#1 is behind the SK1, which IMO gives credence to the Mendecino Joe story about SK1.
The world owes you a big Thank You Jim!
Let me be the first to say that I appreciate the work that you have done.

#10. Fat Cherry x 88g13hp
Large vintage afghani that smells like cherries
#11. Vintage Pakistani x 88g13hp
There are reports of major pinine and an uplifting and soaring high.
#12. Vintage Lebanese x 88g13hp
Not much information but there are some videos out there and reports that it is an indica. I know Lebanese can have many cannabinoids so could be an interesting experience.
#13. Kandahar Black x 88g13hp
From “Vision Creator” in Canada.
#14. Jalahabad Star #5 x 88g13hp
" ExSitu first presents this offering of real old-time C. indica ssp. afghanica genetics. Preserved since 1989, these seeds were originally collected in 1988 in the area of Salang Pass, Afghanistan, after the disengagement of the Soviet Army there at the time." - Ex-Situ

#16. 80s Black Afghan X a1 Artifact x 88g13hp
