Outdoor Chocolate Chunk
Iām excited for youā¦ I wanna cross this with Malana Cream Landrace Iāve got to make Milk Chocolate ā¦ if you get any extra seeds to trade with, Iād be interested.
Everything is still chugging along! I need to do some clean up, but overall things are going well.

Chocolope
Chocolate Chunk
I really like the 3rd picture idk why just something about cannabis surround by a natural environment like that
Fantastic looking plantās I bet they smell amazing.
What a beautiful sight
This is totally amazing.
Indoor Chocolate Chunk open pollination & crosses
Ohh man. Your plants look terrific & Iām sure all the chocolate strains are smelling strong right now.
Seriously tho fella , Iād like to work with some of your crosses to make Milk Chocolate strainā¦
What does each strain smell like right now?

Still no chocolate smells from anything. The Koffee seems to be at least leaning more towards that dark, earthy tone. The Chocolope were slower to start flowering, and I suspect their smells to start getting louder, soon. The Chocolate Chunk has a sweet smell. I still canāt really describe it. I need to spend some more time with them to pinpoint the scents on all of them. Overall, still nothing that screams chocolate. Which goes with the point of this whole hunt. Chocolate isnāt a common flavor. Itās not as easy as popping a couple beans of any strain that has āchocolateā in the name. Iām not a fan of people crossing strain names. Instead, cross the individual plants. The plants that actually represent what the name implies. I want something chocolate!! Not something that has chocolate in the name, or a bunch of so called āchocolateā strains mashed together. That still doesnāt mean that the offspring will have any chocolate smells or flavors in it. I donāt believe that finding & stabilizing a real chocolate profile is going to be something that will be done quick & easy. I have a lot of beans to go through in hopes that I will find the keepers Iām looking for. Only then does the breeding begin. So, pack your lunch. This is gonna be a long ride.
Chocolate Chunk #6 is looking solid, though. She has a super pungent & sweet smell that I just canāt put my finger on, yet.
Love it. Your description above is exactly how I think as well. I understand finding something that actually smells like chocolate will be not Easy or quick but makes it so much more rewarding to actually make something this specialā¦
I tend to build flavor profiles based on how I make vape juice recipes, it sounds far fetched but believe me itās pretty closeā¦ vaping juice flavors works the same way, just because itās called Blueberry doesnāt mean thatās what it actually tastes like lol
For the chocolate taste/smell as a base Iām lookin to combine these flavor/smell profiles:
Vanilla/Sweet or Carmel, Coco/Coffee/ chocolate types and a cream base like Malana Cream Landrace Hash because itās tendency to be āwetā with resins that have creamy vanilla profiles. These are all chosen from known characteristics of each potential strain involved and of course we would have to repeatedly breed towards these features in offspring over generations to hone in on this specifice flavor/tasteā¦
I think its well worth this effortsā¦ I do believe that Chocolate Chunk X Malana Cream would be one of the most logical 1st attempts at thisā¦ Of course anything that stands out as coco/coffee/chocolate overall is certainly a strong contender .
Itās also kinda like cooking, you canāt get chocolate flavor without vanilla, sugar & coco.
Otherwise you get a dark chocolate bitter taste.
So we combine a few Items together to make it more favorable to our senses. This essentially what we can do here.
It doesnāt matter if it takes a few years or longer itās ok and expected. If you wanna work with me in the background to make this happen, letās do it since your already growing and probably making seeds of a few different chocolate types and Iāll be growing Malana Cream this year to get the most vibrant, resinous vanilla style base this will be fun
Small Update
Still hanging onto backups of everything, minus Chocolate Chunk #2 (female) & #7 (male). The #2 clone wasnāt much from the start, and dudded off. The #7 clone was dumping pollen in veg. Heās managed to make over half a dozen extra crosses that I didnāt intend for. Nothing major, but slightly seeded several of my moms that I have flowering, nearby. So, I had to cull him.
Pictured is Phinestās cut of Ice Cream Cake and Terp Hogzā Zkittlez
Those are only 2 of the 9 clone only cuts that got sprinkled with Chocolate Chunk pollen.
Happy accidents

So what your really saying is you accidently made Chocolate Chunk Ice-cream Cake & Hog sized Chocolate Zkittles ? Happy accidents indeed.
Update
Start of week 7 of 12/12 light schedule.
The indoor Chocolate Chunk open pollination started getting ugly. I havenāt been getting in there, because Iāve got some moms flowering nearby, and Iām trying to keep the pollen flying to a minimum.
Iāve chopped out the males, and got in there to clean everything up. The ladies look much better, now.
Outdoor Chocolate Chunk
Theyāre all really starting to come into their own, now. Each one smelling a little different than the other. Thereās a few that really stand out, though. #6 is a monster and smells super sweet and piney. #11 has some solid spears, very sweet smell, and looks like sheās gonna finish earlier than most of the others. #8 is something different than the rest. Similar in structure to #11, but the smellā¦is nasty putrid chemical burn smells, that grab you as you walk by. All the others are some kind of sweet, pine, earthy combo. #8 is interestingly gross.
Amazing man. These look so delicious
Bean Update
Iāve acquired a few more āchocolateā strains to play with. I should be able to find some good stuff to work with from these.
Iāve been wanting to get into the Cocoa Puffs, but Iām curious as to what everyone else would choose to hunt through.
You really messed up not choosing Willy Wonka as your username.
I grew the blueberries and chocate from Useful seeds. I loved them tbh, super easy to grow. We had 1 really nice blueberry that finished early, and 1 with nice chocolate terps. Iāve contemplated grabbing the chocolate diesel from their IG auctions, but they get out hand quick.
