Guava Slayer
Also known as: Guava Slayer OG
What is the Guava Slayer strain?
Guava Slayer is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
Guava Slayer is a hybrid cannabis strain developed through the crossbreeding of Guava and Slayer OG. The strain emerged in the early 2010s from California's competitive cannabis breeding scene, where breeders sought to combine the tropical fruit characteristics of Guava strains with the potent, relaxing effects of OG Kush varieties. While its exact breeding history remains somewhat obscure due to the proprietary nature of many cannabis genetics, Guava Slayer has gained recognition among connoisseurs for its distinctive flavor profile and balanced effects.
The strain typically produces medium to large-sized buds with a dense, resinous structure characteristic of its OG lineage. The flowers display a vibrant green coloration with occasional purple hues that may appear under cooler growing conditions. Orange pistils weave through the buds, while a thick coating of trichomes gives the flowers a frosty appearance. The plant structure tends to be bushy with strong lateral branching, requiring some training for optimal light penetration.
Guava Slayer is particularly noted for its complex aromatic profile that combines tropical fruit notes with earthy, diesel undertones. The strain's name accurately reflects its dominant guava scent, which is complemented by secondary aromas of citrus and pine. This combination of appealing flavors and balanced effects has contributed to Guava Slayer's popularity in both medical and recreational cannabis markets, though it remains less widely available than some mainstream hybrid varieties.

How do you grow Guava Slayer?
Guava Slayer is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments but prefers a Mediterranean-like climate when grown outside.
