As the name suggests, Strawberry Guava is a truly delicious strain. But what you wouldn’t know from just reading the sweet name is that the THC level soars, even reaching 30% in well-bred crops. From the sugary strawberry flavor to the expansive euphoric feeling, Strawberry Guava is a favorite of experienced users who can take the THC in stride and who want to go beyond the skunkier flavor palettes.

Strawberry Guava grows more readily indoors where an experienced grower can take control and refine their technique. The bright green buds that result are dense, layered with an undertone of purple, and covered in a thick coat of resin. Due to its high resin production, hash and extraction producers love this strain.

GROWERS TIP: The Sea of Green method is advised for this strain, which is why growing experience is recommended. SoG involves low-stress growing that favors many small plants rather than fewer larger ones. This means managing more plants per square foot of garden as well as a comparatively short vegetative stage. Less space and less growing time should make any grower happy - Strawberry Guava relieves stress before it’s even out of the ground.

The terpenes in Strawberry Guava include Beta Myrcene, Limonene, and Linalool. Myrcene, a terpene found in mangoes and lemongrass tea, provides the strain’s couch-locking sensation, which also relieves pain. This terpene and the way it lowers the blood-brain barrier is the reason that experienced users sometimes eat a mango before smoking cannabis to enhance its effects. The flavor has the musk of clove and verbena. It provides a compelling mix with the other terpenes - Limonene, known for its citrus oil flavors, like orange and grapefruit, and Linalool, whose flavor has the fresh softness of newly picked lavender.

The final result is a flavor that is equal parts tropical fruit, vibrant strawberry, and musky herbs. The effects of the Strawberry Guava strain follow this mix of uplifting, euphoric variety. The strain makes users hungry, sociable, and bursting with creativity. This makes it a great fit for exploring nature, hanging out in the city, fishing, seeing the sites, visiting a spa, fishing, or just exploring. Alternatively, with that sky-high THC level, Strawberry Guava can also be used to catch a good night’s sleep.

These effects make the strain perfect for users suffering from chronic pain, anxiety, and even asthma. Depression fades away in a blast of strawberry bliss. Traumatic stress bows before the mango might of an overpowered but wholly satisfying strain, named for its delicious parents.

Bred by Oni Seeds and winner of the Emerald Cup for its terpene mix, this hybrid of Strawberry Banana and Papaya is becoming a new kushy favorite for a reason.
