Deep Line Alchemy 5
Deep Line Alchemy 5
Also known as: DLA 5
Overview
Deep Line Alchemy 5 is a predominantly indica strain meticulously bred by the renowned Bodhi Seeds as part of their Deep Line Alchemy series. This strain is mostly indica and features genetics from an Unknown Afghani (Artifact 1) crossed with 88G13HP. The strain represents a testament to modern cannabis breeding excellence, carrying a rich heritage primarily anchored in indica genetics and bred by the respected Bodhi Seeds. The Deep Line Alchemy series is a line from Bodhi of varying landrace hashplants crossed to his 88G13HP male.
The strain exhibits the classic characteristics of its Afghan hashplant heritage, featuring dense, tightly-packed buds with a vibrant mix of deep greens intermingled with subtle purple hues that become more pronounced under cooler conditions. Under close inspection, the buds are adorned with a generous coating of glistening trichomes that sparkle under light, with trichome density reaching up to 70% coverage in optimal conditions. Deep Line Alchemy buds have dense, conical dark olive green nugs with deep purple undertones, thick amber hairs and a coating of chunky, blue-tinted white crystal trichomes.
The 88G13HP parent is an influential hybrid preserved as a stable IBL line, serving as a breeding cornerstone that lends indica heft and frost to countless modern hybrids, with respected breeders like Bodhi Seeds using this line to impart old-school Afghan potency, yield, and flavor into new crosses. Deep Line Alchemy 5 represents the pinnacle of hashplant breeding, combining traditional Afghan genetics with modern cultivation techniques.

Growing Information
Deep Line Alchemy 5 can be cultivated indoors, outdoors and greenhouse with a flowering time of approximately 70 days (10 weeks). The strain has a compact and robust structure making it ideal for indoor cultivation where space efficiency is critical, with short internodal distances and robust calyx formations. Indoor growers should maintain temperatures between 20°C and 25°C with relative humidity around 40% during flowering, with experienced cultivators reporting average yields of 400-600 grams per square meter under optimized indoor conditions. The strain responds best to slightly acidic soils with a pH range of 6.0 to 6.5. Seeds show approximately 90% germination rate when kept in moist, warm conditions, and techniques such as topping and low-stress training can boost overall bud density by 25-30%. The strain was never available as feminized seeds from Bodhi Seeds.
