Apparently this generates the kind of chart used in the older versions of PowerPoint and the data area auto-grows there. I mostly tried to shrink the datatable and I already tried setting the cell values to null or "" and it didn't work, that's why I couldn't figure it out. Anyway, the solution was to clear the DataSheet:
Ch.Application.DataSheet.Rows.Clear();
(I found this by chance through browsing the intellisense.)
