HOW IT GROWS, by guest gardener, rain city medical
It’s an Indica-style plant
Guava Dawg has bite This massively stinky bud offers up exceptionally smooth, lip-smacking fruit flavor
The Effect:
smoke report: ClasSIC, thick, squat, fat kolas and a frosty dusting is the worst part of this medication. It’s recommended that patients provide their own personal carbon based filtration system when carrying this medication so as not to pollute the zip code you plan on occupying. The familiar sour fuel notes of well-grown Chem Dawg puckers my nostrils as an enormous grin settles onto my face and my tongue swells just a little. Then, just at the peak of fuelgasm, things take a sharp curve to the bitter floral scent of....guava? “Yup, that’s a tropical explosion of island fruit and sour fuel, I need to know more,” I think as I anxiously reach for my most favorite of water tubes from J-Rad. The Genetics: Star Dawg (Chem Dawg4 x Tres Dawg) X Tres Dawg (Chem DawgD x Double Dawg [{Chem DawgD} x {Afghani #1}])
AKA: Guava Chem or Guava Kush

with broad leaves and a squat structure; has a fuelly nose and leaves oily flavor on the palate. I start my clones in pints in Roots Organic Soils. We use Floranova grow for veg. stage along with Trinity and Hygrozyme. Foliar feeding daily with Trinity, Extreme Serene and Ancient Amber until bud break in the flower room. We also spray the nutrient solution on the veg. as a foliar feed daily. As the plants root out the pints, they are transplanted into Nc-5’s and vegged in those for about two weeks. Ppm 1250 and ph 5.8. They’re then brought to the flower room for 10 weeks. Big swell from day one of flower along with Trinity and Hygrozyme. The general hydro flora bloom and flora micro are the base for the flower room Lucas formula style at a concentration of 2 pink to 1 part brown up to 1250ppm and then the organics are added 5ml /gallon. In the end of the 6th week, we cut the big swell and insert peak for final boost b4 flush. The plants get water and Trinity for the remainder of 10 to 20 days until they are cut and hung. When dry, they’re dry clipped and bagged for service.
the bottom line: Top Dawg is a special breeder and Rain City Medical grows this selection exceptionally well. Patients in need of potent medication with strong pain-relieving effects and some of the most exotic flavors available in WA will certainly be insta-fans of this one.
Strong. The effects are strong.
She tips the scales at 21.5% THC from Cannatest, this medication has the capacity to make an otherwise assembled person, a stumbling puddle of mashed potatoes complete with an involuntary lazy eye. Oh, but the taste! It’s rare that I run into Cannabis that makes me gush Notebook style, but this is one. The skill of the gardener immediately comes through with an exceptionally smooth, clean flavor that allows the guava-flavored finish to really leap out at you. Lip smack, smack smack, smack-ah-s’MACK!!!...and it’s still going. This has everything I ever want from my Chem Dawg’s: lung expansion, flavor worthy of a Nobel Peace Prize and the ability to instantly make my face feel like it’s been shrink-wrapped.
