Interestingly, the Skywalker OG has nothing to do with the origin of the name. But it definitely has a lot to do with its predecessors. In actuality, the strain inherits its properties from OG Kush and the original Skywalker. Some old-school breeders believe that the lineage is heavily inclined towards the Blueberry x Mazar. While this part is debatable, once you take the first whiff of the OG ancestry, it will automatically speak volumes about its lineage.
The Skywalker OG has a strong aromatic presence. Soon after you lay your hands on the strain, you will experience the following flavors and aromas:
At first sight, the strain appears similar to a typical Indica-dominant hybrid. But as you look closely, you will notice a medium-sized bud crafted with burnt orange pistils.

If we’re talking about the actual effects of this strain, people often describe them as a body high than a mind-altering one. Perhaps why people use it to alleviate pain, anxiety, etc.

To be honest, there’s no universal dosage guide to consuming cannabis. However, with experience, and expertise we suggest that you stick to the following doses:
Small doses ranging between 0.08 grams to 1 gram
