Skywalker
A legendary indica-dominant hybrid crossing Mazar with Blueberry—the ultimate heavy-hitter from the Dutch Passion library.
What is Skywalker?
Skywalker is a foundational Dutch classic from the world-renowned Dutch Passion Seed Company. This masterfully crafted indica-dominant hybrid was born from the legendary union of Mazar and Blueberry. By crossing two of their most prestigious strains, Dutch Passion created a variety that captured the heavy, resinous yields of Mazar and the sweet, fruity aromatic profile of Blueberry.
While modern markets are flooded with "Skywalker OG" variations, the original Dutch Skywalker stands apart for its incredible stability and classic old-school potency. This strain is famous for producing large, dense flowers that emit a pungent "Afghani" aroma mixed with dark berry sweetness. For growers, sourcing a verified HLVD tested negative clone or authentic seeds ensures you are growing the true Skywalker lineage that has dominated the European cannabis scene for decades.
Terpene Profile
The Skywalker strain terpenes offer a complex, nostalgic sensory experience. The nose is dominated by an earthy, peppery base inherited from the Mazar side, which is perfectly balanced by the unmistakable sweet berry and fruity notes from the Blueberry parentage. It is a "heavy" smelling strain that fills a room with a thick, herbal aroma.
Growing Skywalker
Skywalker is a robust grower that leans heavily into its indica morphology. Expect a medium-height plant with strong lateral branching that supports its heavy flower weight. While it is not a "washer" strain meant for hash production, it excels as a flower-producer, yielding thick, chunky colas that are favored by commercial and hobbyist growers alike.
Cultivation Essentials
-
Indoor FocusThrives in controlled indoor environments where humidity can be kept low during flower
-
FeedingSteady feeder that handles standard nutrient regimens with ease—very forgiving for beginners
-
TrainingResponds excellently to SOG (Sea of Green) methods due to its compact indica structure
-
AirflowRequires high airflow; the buds are so dense they can be prone to moisture issues if stagnant
For the best flavor, organic soil and a slow cure are recommended. The Blueberry heritage shines through much more prominently when the plant is not over-fed with synthetic minerals during the final weeks.
Flower Quality & Bag Appeal
Skywalker is bred specifically for premium flower quality rather than concentrate extraction. The buds are exceptionally dense, often described as "rock-hard" nuggets that provide a satisfying "snap" when broken apart. Visually, the flower displays a deep, dark olive green with occasional blue or purple hues late in flower if temperatures are dropped.
The pistils are generally a dark, rusty orange, and the trichome coverage is tight and frosty, giving the buds a velvety shimmer. This is classic "loud" flower that is prized for its shelf-life and consistent potency.
Effects & Experience
The Skywalker strain effects are traditional indica through and through. It is highly regarded as an evening or "nightcap" strain. Consumers report a heavy, numbing body high that is excellent for managing physical tension, paired with a mellow, tranquil mental state. It is not overly cerebral, making it a favorite for those who want to avoid racey thoughts.

Frequently Asked Questions
Skywalker is a direct cross between Mazar (a high-yielding Afghani-dominant hybrid) and Blueberry (a legendary fruity indica). It was developed by Dutch Passion Seed Company to provide the "best of both worlds" in terms of yield and flavor.
Yes. The original Skywalker from Dutch Passion (Mazar x Blueberry) is a classic Dutch hybrid. Skywalker OG is a later West Coast variation that introduces OG Kush genetics into the mix. The original Skywalker tends to be more fruity and earthy rather than gassy.
Skywalker is generally not considered a "washer" strain. While it is very frosty, its trichome structure and resin consistency are better suited for premium flower production rather than ice water extraction or solventless pressing.
Skywalker has a relatively fast flowering time for its yield size, typically finishing in 8 to 9 weeks. Some phenotypes may be ready at day 56, while others benefit from the full 63 days to let the Blueberry aroma fully develop.
Absolutely. Skywalker is known for its vigor and stability. It is a forgiving plant that handles nutrient fluctuations well and doesn't require complex training to produce a significant harvest, making it an ideal choice for first-time growers.
