Strain Traits
Details
Gelato strain information
The Gelato weed strain, also known as Larry Bird, is a pure cross of Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies and Sunset Sherbert, so you already know it's going to be an absolute firecracker. Leaning very slightly towards the Indica side of the genetic split and pushing out plus 25% THC, accompanied by a dessert-heavy but complex flavor on the inhale, Gelato is one of those strains that quickly becomes a daily driver.
Perfect for temperate to Mediterranean climates, Gelato matures quickly, flowering in 8-10 weeks and producing yields of 500-600gr/m².
What Are The Effects Of Gelato?
Balanced is the name of the game here, ladies and gents, with pretty much everyone loving the Gelato ride. With a high that caters to both the body and the mind, this is an anytime smoke and one that hits hard.
The plus 25% THC is obvious in the initial rush, but that soon mellows slightly. The high will last more than 2 hours, in which time expect to be relaxed but also not ready to just sit and do nothing.
Medical users love this strain for its painkilling and stress-relieving properties. It's also a popular choice for those with chronic inflammatory / pain issues.
How do you grow Gelato Seeds
Gelato thrives in slightly cooler conditions but can do well if the temperature rises - they'll just need a bit more help.
Gelato plants rarely top the 5-foot mark, and thanks to the Indica dominance, they will respond super well to training techniques designed to open the canopy up and promote horizontal over vertical growth. You can be heavy with defoliation, and we definitely recommend topping your Gelato plants, at least twice.
If you get things right, the yield is going to be generous, typically around 500-600gr/m².
Gelato Taste And Smell
If you like a strain that gives you a bunch of sweetness, that's also backed up by a healthy amount of complexity, then Gelato might just be the one.
You know that one flavor they have at Gelato stores that you always want to try but usually end up sticking with your old faithful? Yeah, expect something like that from this strain. A surprise package for sure, but in the best way.
