Royal Skywalker Strain
Royal Skywalker by Royal Queen Seeds is one of those strains where the name can cause a bit of confusion.
So let’s clear that up first.
This isn’t Skywalker OG.
Royal Queen Seeds based Royal Skywalker on the earlier Dutch Skywalker genetic combination, bringing together:
Blueberry × Mazar
That gives it a completely different background from the OG Kush-influenced Skywalker varieties that appeared later.
The finished strain is 60% Indica / 40% Sativa, with Royal Queen Seeds putting THC at an impressive up to 25%.
Then there’s the flavour.
Blueberry, citrus and pepper.
At SeedMasters.com, we think the genetics are the most interesting part. Blueberry and Mazar are both names with some genuine history behind them, and Royal Skywalker brings those two old-school families together in a modern feminized release.
Blueberry Meets Mazar
Royal Skywalker has a refreshingly straightforward family tree:
Blueberry × Mazar
But there’s plenty going on behind those two names.
Blueberry is one of the great classics of cannabis breeding, becoming particularly famous for its unmistakable berry character.
Mazar brings a very different background.
Royal Queen Seeds traces this side of Royal Skywalker back to genetics originating around Mazar-i-Sharif in Afghanistan, giving the strain a strong traditional Indica foundation.
It’s a pairing that makes sense.
You’ve got the sweeter fruit character associated with Blueberry on one side and old-school Afghan influence on the other.
RQS eventually stabilised its chosen expression into Royal Skywalker, settling on a slightly Indica-dominant 60/40 split.
For us, that’s a much more interesting story than simply treating Royal Skywalker as another modern American OG hybrid.
Not Skywalker OG
This deserves its own section because the names are so easy to mix up.
Royal Skywalker and Skywalker OG aren’t the same strain.
Royal Queen Seeds specifically makes this distinction in its own history of the variety.
The original Skywalker was developed in the Netherlands using Blueberry and Mazar genetics.
Skywalker OG came later and belongs to a different genetic branch with OG influence.
Royal Skywalker is RQS’s interpretation of that earlier Blueberry × Mazar combination.
That’s the lineage we’d stick with on SeedMasters.com.
You’ll sometimes see Royal Skywalker referred to simply as Skywalker or even Skywalker OG elsewhere, but when we’re describing the actual RQS genetics, Blueberry × Mazar is the important information.
Blueberry, Citrus and Pepper
The official RQS flavour profile is:
Blueberry · Citrus · Pepper
Blueberry is naturally the first note we’d expect given the parentage.
But we like the fact that the profile doesn’t stop there.
Citrus adds a brighter edge, while pepper gives the sweeter fruit notes some contrast.
That combination makes Royal Skywalker sound considerably less one-dimensional than the name Blueberry in the family tree might initially suggest.
At SeedMasters.com, we’d describe it as ripe blueberry sweetness sharpened by citrus and finished with a warm peppery edge.
Three clear flavours.
No need for a shopping list of imaginary tasting notes.
Up to 25% THC
Royal Queen Seeds currently gives Royal Skywalker a THC content of:
Up to 25%
CBD is listed as low.
That’s a substantial breeder-stated figure, particularly considering the old-school genetics sitting behind the strain.
RQS describes its character as:
Clear · Physically Relaxing
The breeder’s fuller description adds a brighter, happier mental quality alongside that heavier physical side.
We think that’s a useful detail because Royal Skywalker isn’t presented as an overwhelmingly heavy Indica despite being 60% Indica.
The Blueberry and Mazar combination gives it a more balanced identity than the name alone might suggest.
As always, the THC percentage and characteristics are breeder-supplied reference information rather than guaranteed results for every individual expression.
Classic Genetics, Modern Numbers
Royal Skywalker might have an older genetic foundation, but its current RQS specifications are thoroughly modern.
Flowering is listed at approximately:
60–65 days
Indoor height sits around:
80–130cm
Outdoor height is approximately:
150–200cm
Royal Queen Seeds currently gives indoor production at 550–600g/m², with outdoor production around 500–600g per plant.
The outdoor finish is listed as October.
Appearance stays fairly traditional, with dense deep-green flowers, prominent pistils and substantial resin coverage.
For SeedMasters.com customers, these figures are included purely as breeder-supplied reference information for identifying and comparing collectible cannabis genetics.
Two Old-School Names in One Family Tree
What we keep coming back to with Royal Skywalker is the parentage.
There are plenty of newer strains where you need to trace five or six generations before finding the genetics that actually gave the variety its identity.
Royal Skywalker doesn’t have that problem.
Blueberry × Mazar.
That’s the story.
Blueberry brings one of the most recognisable fruit profiles in cannabis breeding.
Mazar brings the Afghan side.
And Royal Queen Seeds combines them into a feminized photoperiod reaching a breeder-stated 25% THC.
For collectors interested in classic genetics, that’s a pretty strong combination.

Our Take on Royal Skywalker
At SeedMasters.com, we’d make one thing particularly clear about Royal Skywalker:
Don’t buy into the name and assume this is another Skywalker OG.
It isn’t.
And actually, we think the real genetics are more interesting.
Blueberry × Mazar brings together two strains from a very different era of cannabis breeding.
You’ve got the famous fruit character of Blueberry alongside the Afghan heritage behind Mazar.
Then Royal Queen Seeds takes that old-school foundation and gives it a surprisingly modern specification, including up to 25% THC and substantial resin production.
The flavour is another reason we’d pick this one out.
Blueberry is predictable.
Blueberry with citrus and pepper isn’t quite so predictable.
That sharper combination should help Royal Skywalker stand apart from strains that simply lean on berry sweetness from beginning to end.
Most of all, though, we like that the family tree is easy to understand.
No Cookies.
No Gelato.
No Runtz.
No complicated multi-hybrid pedigree that takes half a page to explain.
Just Blueberry and Mazar, brought together in a slightly Indica-dominant hybrid with plenty of history on both sides.
For collectors browsing Royal Queen Seeds at SeedMasters.com, Royal Skywalker is a good reminder that classic genetics don’t necessarily need reinventing.
Sometimes they just need preserving properly.
