AUTO PILOTE ELLIS D. PUTS SKYWALKER OG ON THE TEST TRACK

Experienced auto cannabis pilote Ellis D. put two Skywalker OG Auto plants on his in-house grow room test track. After a bit less than three days, the two seedlings loomed out of the ground. Before long they displayed a very bushy, horizontally shaped growth with dark green shade leaves, in a fairly wide-fingered indica-style. About three weeks into veg growth, female preflowering appeared on these two uniform plants that stood 23 and 25 cm tall at that point. Commented a satisfied Ellis D., “they’ve timely switched to automatic flowering, so up to now everything’s going according to plan.” All the cycle through, daily light duration was 20 hours.

THE FLOWERING STAGE: HEAVILY CRYSTALLINE BUXOM BUDS FINISHED ON SCHEDULE

Whilst flowering, the two plants grew upwards significantly but in doing so retained their basically lateral growth pattern and compactness. Slight differences became manifest in terms of flower structure – the buds of one plant turned out be leafier than the other one’s that exhibited a very high calyx-to-leaf ratio. On the other hand though, the first specimen’s resin output was even more generous, in the end it looked like a classic Afghani hash plant, with not only its calyxes, but also bigger flower leaves richly covered in trichomes. While the densely woven crystal carpet of the second Skywalker OG Auto plant was very presentable, too, its bigger flower leaves were not that opulently coated with resin glands. As for bud volume and density then again, the two plants performed on the same level, producing big and tight buxom buds. Also their odour Ellis D. found to be in line, it was exactly the kind of aroma Barney’s had described: The basic impression was – very fittingly for an “auto” strain – a scent of fuel, wonderfully enriched with a good deal of exotic sweetness and refined with a dash of lemon. Said Ellis D. appreciatively, „this smells like a true treat for the palate! Cannot wait to test vape it…“

WEIGHING DAY: THE TWO SPLENDID SPEEDSTERS DELIVER PAYLOADS OF TOP-CLASS BUDS

But before, he had to harvest and dry the buds of the two plants that had ascended to final heights of 49 and 57 cm. With a life cycle of 71 and 74 days, both Skywalker OG Auto specimens had matured within the time window stated by Barney’s Farm. Being dried and nicely cured in a big storage jar about three and a half weeks later, the buds’ weighing day had arrived and yielded results of 67 and 75 grams – “these two splendid speedsters have delivered payloads of top-class buds, I’m quite impressed, especially when relating this outcome to the plant sizes”, Ellis D. remarked full of praise. With most of the leaves pruned off and a major part of chlorophyll gone after drying and curing, the Skywalker OG Auto buds now gave off an even sweeter fragrance than before, while that fuel and lemon character was fully preserved.

TEST VAPING THE STRAIN: ELLIS D. FEELS „OUTTA SPACE“ AND IN A MOOD FOR A CLASSIC MOVIE

Eagerly awaited, it was now time to test vape and Ellis D. deposited half a gram of Skywalker OG Auto into his Crafty Vaporizer. When the device had heated up, he excitedly inhaled a first big vapour cloud. What followed next was an exquisite flavour sensation: Like a vaporous candy, the weed taste wafted through Ellis D.’s mouth and left something delicious on his palate that he perceived as a piquant mixture of conifer wood, black pepper and brown sugar. The auto weed’s effect arrived almost as fast as a taxi instantly racing around the corner once called for – two deep hits were enough to make Ellis D.’s legs soft as rubber and, perceivedly, wrap his body up in cotton wool.

 

This after two more drafts further intensified condition ultimately demanded utmost snugness so that he happily fused with his couch and as a perfect match to the strain name opted to stream „Star Wars Episode IV“, the very first movie out of that famous cinema series. And he was perfectly able to do so although he felt pretty stoned, kind of outta space, but it was a sort of mental levitation with enough clarity to leave him fully receptive to that cinematic highlight he had been loving since his childhood days. So he experienced an almost two-hour auto trip into the clouds and beyond, to the infinite vastness of another galaxy…T

THE VERDICT

Summing up his Skywalker OG Auto experience, Ellis D. said „this was my first Barney’s Farm autoflower variety, and I must say these Farm guys seem to have a knack for auto cannabis as well! This auto strain’s blooming gear box runs like a charm. To consequently retain the automotive image semantically, it should be called “Skydriver” rather than Skywalker… the more so as under this kind of spaced-out effect nobody will literally GO anywhere!”, he said with a broad grin. For the first time by the way, with most obvious success he had made use of the Bionova product range for cultivation on soil – substrate, fertilizers and stimulators.
