Overview
Guava Cake is a rare indica dominant hybrid strain created as a backcross of the iconic Gold Leaf strain. This potent hybrid's ancestry can be traced back to a backcross of the Gold Leaf strain, combining the genetics of Guava IX (itself a cross of Star Dawg with Star Dawg) and Key Lime Pie. Despite the haziness surrounding its exact origins, Seed Junky Genetics is widely considered the original creator of the Guava Cake strain, a cultivator known for creating fine genetics. This potent hybrid boasts an impressive THC content ranging from 28% to 30%, making it a favorite among enthusiasts seeking a powerful experience.
The strain features dark green, spade-shaped buds with amber hairs and a frosty coating of purple-tinted trichomes. This tasty bud packs a sweet tropical berry flavor into each and every toke with a lightly herbal exhale. What sets Guava Cake apart is its sticky, sweet syrupy resin coating the buds, enhancing the overall flavor experience. Guava Cake is best suited for experienced users due to its high potency and potential for overwhelming effects.
