Pink Guava (Smalls)

Pink Guava (Smalls) Strain Overview

Pink Guava is a balanced hybrid that has become a cornerstone of modern cannabis breeding. Bred by the legendary Deo Farms of Oakland, California, this strain is a selection from a hunt through seeds of OZ Kush from Dying Breed Seeds. While Pink Guava is a standout strain in its own right, it’s also famous as the genetic building block for some of today’s most sought-after strains, including RS-11, RS-54, and Zoap.

The strain is named after its standout flavor profile. Pink refers to the subtle pink and red hues that often appear in the buds, while Guava captures the sweet, tropical fruit notes that dominate the aroma and taste.

The “Smalls” designation means these are smaller popcorn buds from the same premium plants, offering the same quality, potency, and flavor at a better value.

Pink Guava is a versatile strain. It works well in the afternoon when you want an uplifting, clear-headed boost without losing focus. It also works in the evening when you want to unwind and relax. If you are looking for a flavorful, balanced hybrid with tropical vibes and a feel-good high, Pink Guava (Smalls) is worth your attention.

Pink Guava was bred by Deo Farms of Oakland, California, a legendary breeder known for producing some of the most influential strains in modern cannabis. The genetic cross brings together two powerhouse parents.

The result is a balanced hybrid. The standard Pink Guava cut delivers a well-rounded experience with stunning buds featuring red and pink hues, heavy trichome coverage, and a tropical, sweet flavor profile that has made it famous across dispensaries in North America.

Pink Guava is known for being euphoric, relaxing, and uplifting. The experience starts with a quick onset that brings waves of positivity before settling into a smooth, comfortable body relaxation.

The peak (30 to 90 minutes in): The body effects settle in. A warm, soothing sensation spreads from your shoulders down to your legs. Your muscles feel loose. Your mind stays clear but relaxed. You can hold conversations, watch movies, or listen to music with ease. One reviewer noted it provides “a great balance in the terpenes so you don’t feel like you’re about to bounce off the walls, but you still feel uplifted, euphoric, productive, and relaxed”. Another described it as “not overwhelming energetic, happy, focus but not stuck in deep thoughts, not stuck to the couch or bed”.

The comedown (2 to 3 hours in): Energy levels fade gradually. Most users feel ready for food and then sleep at a normal hour. There is no crash, just a smooth return to baseline.
