In one line
RS11 is short for Rainbow Sherbet #11 (also spelled Sherbert), a 2022 release from Deo Farms of Oakland and Wizard Trees. Pink Guava is one parent; the other is listed as Sunset Sherbet by Leafly and OZK by Weedmaps. Leafly's profile leads with caryophyllene, then limonene and humulene. As of October 3, 2026, RS11 THCA flower is federal hemp only until December 11, 2026.
In this note
RS11 stands for Rainbow Sherbet #11, the eleventh selection in a Rainbow Sherbet line that Deo Farms of Oakland released with Wizard Trees in 2022, according to Weedmaps. Pink Guava is one parent on every listing we checked; the second parent is disputed, and Leafly’s profile leads with caryophyllene, then limonene and humulene.
One strain, five spellings
All of these point to the same file:
- RS11
- RS-11
- RS 11
- Rainbow Sherbet #11
- Rainbow Sherbert #11
“Sherbert” is the spelling Leafly and Weedmaps use in their alias lines. The “#11” is a keeper number: growers pop seeds, number every plant, and release the ones worth keeping. A menu that sells “Rainbow Sherbet” with no number is not making the same claim as one that sells RS11.

What is RS11 a cross of?
Pink Guava crossed with either Sunset Sherbet or OZK. That is as far as the public record goes, and Weedmaps’ own description adds a third version.
| Claim | Who says it | How we read it |
|---|---|---|
| Pink Guava x Sunset Sherbert | Leafly | Commonly reported; fits the “Sherbet” name |
| Pink Guava x OZK | Weedmaps parent listing | Commonly reported; Weedmaps spells OZK out as Oz Kush |
| OZ Kush seeds x Doja Pak genetics | Weedmaps description text | Conflicts with the same page’s parent listing |
| Breeder confirmation of either | None we could find | Open |
One detail matters for the OZK version. Leafly describes Pink Guava as a Deo Farms selection from a seed hunt of OZ Kush from Dying Breed Seeds. If the second parent really is OZK, RS11 is Pink Guava bred back toward its own source. That is an inference from two listings, not a fact on record.
If the Sunset Sherbet version is right, RS11 shares a grandparent with Lemon Cherry Gelato, which is usually listed as Sunset Sherbet x Girl Scout Cookies.
What does RS11 smell and taste like?
Fruit first. Leafly calls it “extra fruity with hints of sour citrus” and tags apricot, peach and citrus. Weedmaps users lean the other way, with diesel, woody and berry as the top tags. One Leafly reviewer reports “gas, mango and tar/blacktop” on the nose and a taste “reminiscent of sherbert ice cream with a kush note”.
The split is what you would expect from a cross with a fruit side (Pink Guava) and a kush side. Different cuts and different cures can push a Batch either way.
What effects do people report?
Leafly reviewers describe feeling “calm, and sedated, but still mentally alert”, with focused, giggly and relaxed as the top tags. Weedmaps users report relaxed (42%), euphoric (32%) and uplifted (26%). These are self-reported and vary by person, dose and setting. None of this is medical advice.
Grow and phenotype notes
- Color: Leafly’s grow note says the strain shows “vibrant hues of lime green and space yellow”. Not a purple strain; a purple Batch sold as RS11 is worth a question.
- Flowering: around 10 weeks, longer than many dessert hybrids. Ask for a harvest date; a 10-week plant cut early will not match the published profile.
- Cut source: as a numbered selection, RS11 circulates as clones. Ask the seller whose cut it is.
RS11 as THCA flower: what to check on the COA
- Delta-9 THC at or below 0.3% by dry weight, the federal hemp line until December 11, 2026.
- Total THC, computed as delta-9 + (THCA x 0.877). Example: 26.0% THCA with 0.25% delta-9 gives 23.05% total THC.
- Minor cannabinoids. Leafly lists about 1% CBG for RS11. A full panel shows whether the Batch carries any.
- Terpenes. Caryophyllene, limonene and humulene near the top match the published profile.
- Batch match. Sample ID, lot and test date on the COA should match the label.

As of October 3, 2026, high-THCA flower sold as RS11 is federal hemp only while its delta-9 THC stays at or below 0.3%, and only until December 11, 2026. On that date the total-THC definition written by Section 781 of P.L. 119-37 takes effect, after H.R. 6500 moved the date for THCA. Several states already apply total-THC math. After December 11, RS11 remains a licensed-dispensary strain in adult-use states.
