Guava Tart strain guide
Guava Tart is a hybrid name shared by two different plants: one from Crockett Family Farms, often spelled Guava Tartz, and one from the Strane brand. Both are described with a sweet guava and pastry smell and a little gas underneath.
Where does Guava Tart come from?
There is no single answer here, because two breeders use the name. The version listed most often is Crockett Family Farms' Guava Tartz, a cross of Apple Tartz and Crockett's Dawg. It's usually described as sativa-leaning.
Strane, a brand under Liberty Cannabis, sells its own Guava Tart, made from Grandi Guava and Caribbean Cookies. That version is described as leaning a little more toward the relaxed side.
Since these are separate crosses, the label alone won't tell you which one you have. The breeder or producer name is the best clue.
What does Guava Tart smell and taste like?
Both versions are described as sweet and tropical, like guava jelly on a pastry. The Crockett cut adds crisp apple, a bit of pepper and a diesel edge from its Dawg parent. The Strane cut is described as more cake and guava jam, with gas underneath. Some reviewers also mention a funky, cheesy note.
Terpene data is thin. Strane lists limonene, myrcene, caryophyllene and linalool for its version, but without measured amounts, and we found no published terpene results for the Crockett cut.
Guava Tart effects: what people report
Reports on the Crockett version lean focused, happy and energetic, the kind of strain people describe using earlier in the day. The Strane version gets described as calmer, with a relaxed body feel and a clear head. Across both, euphoric and giggly come up too.
These are experiences people report, not promises. How it feels depends on which version you have, how much you take and your tolerance. Dry mouth, dizziness and headaches are the most common complaints.
How strong is Guava Tart?
Published figures are limited. One strain database lists it around 19% THC, and product listings run from about 19% to 23%, with little CBD. Treat that as a rough guide rather than a firm range.
Start with a small amount if you're new to it, and go by the THC and CBD on your own label. Our guide to reading cannabis labels covers what those numbers mean.
Buying Guava Tart in Canada
Because two different crosses share the name, look for the breeder or genetics on the package or the product page. That tells you whether you're getting the brighter Crockett cut or the calmer Strane one.
Check the THC and CBD numbers and the packaging date too, since fresher flower keeps more of that fruity smell.
Guava Tart vs Apple Tartz
Apple Tartz is a parent of the Crockett version, so the two share a sweet, pastry-like base. Apple Tartz leans toward tart green apple, while Guava Tart swaps much of that for tropical guava and adds more gas. If you want crisp apple sweetness, start with Apple Tartz. If tropical fruit sounds better, try Guava Tart.
