~ Auto Skywalker Haze®️ by Dutch Passion ~ Skywalker Haze x Auto Amsterdam Amnesia Well friends, here we go on another 'canna-venture' together cultivating Dutch Passion's Autoflowering version of their outstanding Skywalker Haze along with three other incredible autoflowers from Dutch Passion that I'm running separately, so buckle up and hold on! This will be a wild ride for sure! I've wanted to grow this strain for some time now and finally have an opportunity to see what I can do with it, and I've germinated two so double the fun! "Auto Skywalker Haze has a very pungent and fruity aroma! The incredibly firm and frosty buds give off a strong lemony, yet sweet, haze-like scent. The citrus and haze notes are clearly dominant. The combination of the fruity, sour, pungent citrus-dominant terpene profile with the more pungent, spicy haze character makes this a strain for real enthusiasts. The buds are completely covered in trichomes and in addition to providing a high cannabinoid profile. It also gives a true taste explosion. The terpenes are in abundance and they provide an exceptionally strong fruity haze taste. " ** "Auto Skywalker Haze is currently Dutch Passion's most potent autoflower with THC levels over 25%! 26.2% to be exact! This makes this strain even stronger than most of the photoperiod seed strains currently available worldwide.** "The feminized Skywalker Haze is a cross of our original and classic Skywalker variety, which consists of a cross of Mazar x Blueberry which in turn is crossed with an Amsterdam Amnesia from the Amsterdam underground scene. By crossing this photoperiod Skywalker Haze genetics with Auto Amsterdam Amnesia, Auto Skywalker Haze was created." ** "Auto Skywalker Haze produces robust and stable autoflower plants. This Sativa dominant cannabis strain is known for strong and sturdy plants that can take a beating. Most ladies grow into large plants with a real Sativa appearance. These phenotypes can grow quite tall with wide and long branching, thin leaves and elongated Sativa buds. These phenotypes usually take a little longer to mature. The flowers, which are completely covered in crystals, may have a tendency to foxtail slightly, but that doesn't take away from its true beauty. These buds also become a lot more compact than you might expect from the Sativa appearance. There are also phenotypes that remain just a little more compact and tend more towards the hybrid side. These mostly Skywalker-dominant phenotypes grow very hard and compact buds, sometimes reaching as thick as a Coke bottle. All plants have a good flower-to-leaf ratio and trimming the plants is relatively quick. Some plants can even be picked completely by hand and are ready really quickly. The small sugar leaves are also completely full of resin and trichomes, so you don't necessarily have to be very precise. If you want use it, then you have excellent trim to make your own hash, oil or other cannabis concentrate. Auto Skywalker Haze generally has a short internode distance. The flowers can grow nicely together and completely fill the branches from top to bottom with sticky buds. Most Sativa-dominant plants usually have a little more space between the buds. This lady can also stretch a lot. Outside we have seen occasional plants that have reached a height of more than two meters in the open ground. That is very exceptional for an autoflower."** "Auto Skywalker Haze generally takes about 12 weeks from seed to produce fully mature plants ready for harvest. There are two phenotypes of Auto Skywalker Haze that take a little longer, around 13 to 14 weeks. These are really worth the wait! During the last few weeks the buds get a lot thicker and heavier and the potency continues to increase. Outdoors, Auto Skywalker Haze takes an average of between 12-15 weeks to fully mature." ** **Credit- Dutch Passion.com ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ~THE SETUP~ ~ Grown in 15L Gronest geotextile pots filled with Mother Earth Grow 70/30 Coco/Perlite with Xtreme Gardening Mykos added. ~ Seeds were germinated directly in the medium without any 'pre-soak' ~ Seeds were planted three days before the Full Moon (Waning Gibbons) and sprouted within 72hrs, on the Full Moon. ~ Feeding will be by Lotus Nutrients (first time using) ~ 24hr light cycle while germinating ~ 20/4 light cycle after first leaves appear. ~ 4x8 Gorilla Tent ~ HLG 650R w/ 30w Supplemental UVA Bar controlled by a Trolmaster Hydro X controller set for a 15min Sunrise/Sunset simulation.

This hybrid strain is a cross between Skywalker Haze and Dutch Passion Auto Ultimate and is known for its strong cerebral effects and uplifting high. In this report, I will share my experience growing Dutch Passion Auto Skywalker Haze and provide some 'High Humor'. ~Growing conditions~ I grew my Dutch Passion Auto Skywalker Haze plants indoors in a 4x8 Gorilla tent. I germinated both seeds directly in the Coco/Perlite medium and both sprouted within 72 hours! The growing environment was kept on point with the help of an AC Infinity Cloudline T6 exhaust fan coupled with their Series 67 Bluetooth Controller along with two 18" Hurricane fans, two floor mounted 8" fans and a 6" clip on fan providing ample air movement. Also crucial to this grow was the supplemental Co2 via a 50# tank regulated by an Autopilot APC 8200 Co2 Controller that I set to keep the tent at 700-1200ppm's throughout the run. Tent temperature's ran between 68-78℉, humidity was kept between 40-60%. I used a lighting schedule of 20/4 for the entire grow with a pair of HLG 650R's that also have supplemental UV bars attached. The exception being the last three weeks, where I added 4 hours a day of UV, and cut the cycle back to 19/5 for a week, and then finally to 18/6 for the last two weeks. I used Lotus Nutrients for the first part of this grow but became concerned when I noticed that I was getting yellowing I used starting on the #1 plant going from the bottom up indicating to me that their was a problem with the nutrients. Let me say that I'm VERY OCD when it comes to the PH/EC of what I feed my babies, following all of the recommendations from Lotus, but continued to see the yellowing progress. I then switched to Dutch Pro liquid nutrients and within two feeds I could begin to see a noticeable difference in the #1 plants color and overall health! As I continued using the DutchPro nutrients the #1 plants health, vigor and color continued to dramatically improve all the way up until harvest. I can honestly say the I believe switching to DutchPro nutrients saved this grow from a possible dramatic failure! ~Flowering time~ My Dutch Passion Auto Skywalker Haze plants had a flowering time of 93 days from seed to harvest for the #2 plant and the #1 in an unbelievable 113 days! The #2 reached a height of 23" and produced yield of 116g, while the giant #1 plant came in with a whopping 279g total yield and grew to just shy of 40" tall! In addition to all the tasty flowers that these two plants provided, I took the 'sugar trim' from them and ran it through my sift screens resulting in a 24 gram mound of sift on the first sift! And now for some 'High Humor': ~Growing Dutch Passion Auto Skywalker Haze was a bit like being a Jedi, except instead of using the Force, I used Coco/Perlite and DutchPro nutrients. ~ My Dutch Passion Auto Skywalker Haze plant was so big and beautiful, it could have been featured in the Millennium Falcon's garden. ~When it comes to smoking Dutch Passion Auto Skywalker Haze, it's like taking a ride on the fastest ship in the galaxy - it's a real trip. In conclusion, the Dutch Passion Auto Skywalker Haze was one of my all time highest yielding and longest growing autoflowers to date. It was a very easy strain to grow, and it only required minimal care and attention to ensure that it grew to its full potential. Cultivating these two Dutch Passion Auto Skywalker Haze plants indoors was a great experience that resulted in two beautiful and high-yielding plants. Smoking the buds provided a strong cerebral high that was uplifting and energizing. I would highly recommend this strain to other growers looking for a relatively easy to grow variety with strong effects. May the Force be with you as you embark on your growing journey... May all your days and grows be Blessed! 😎🙏❤️ References: Dutch Passion. (n.d.). Auto Skywalker Haze. Retrieved from https://dutch-passion.com/en/cannabis-seeds/auto-skywalker-haze Leafly. (n.d.).
