GELATO STRAIN

Gelato Strain Information Regular gelato has got nothing on the Gelato weed strain! This sweet sensation is a slightly indica-leaning hybrid created by San Francisco’s Cookie Fam Genetics. It’s a hybrid of Thin Mint, Girl Scout Cookies and fruity indica Sunset Sherbert. This strain is sometimes also referred to as Larry Bird. However, it relates more to the NBA legend’s jersey number, 33. This nickname is the result of the various phenotypes of Gelato released by Cookie Fam Genetics. One, in particular, is numbered 33, which is how it became associated with Larry Bird. Users love this strain for its well-balanced euphoric yet laidback effects. Not only that but with a name like Gelato, you know that it’s got a flavour that will knock your socks off! With a THC concentration between 20-25%, toking on Gelato is a sweet treat in more ways than one! Appearance, Flavour, and Effects It takes just one glance at this bud to fall in love! Gelato’s buds are a bit on the smaller side. However, they have a thick and dense structure that is indicative of many indica variants. Poking out between the buds of Gelato are bright orange pistils that provide a captivating contrast to the forest green leaves. Shades of deep purple further accent its visual allure. While the buds are still sticky, short stalks on the trichomes mean that Gelato has a less frosty appearance than other strains. When properly cured, the Gelato flowers have a pungently sweet smell of citrus, thanks to its parent strain Sunset Sherbert. The sweetness of the aroma comes from Gelato’s other parent strain, Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies. Some users may also detect notes of yeast and dough, as well. However, when ground in a weed grinder or broken apart by hand, the flowers release more herbal, earthy aromas. Keep in mind, though, that Gelato has a particularly pungent smell. So, if you’re looking to hide your high, you’ll need to be extra cautious. Gelato Strain Effects As the name implies, Gelato smoke is thick yet deliciously smooth! It leaves a soft and creamy sensation in its wake. This strain’s flavour is very distinct and arguably its greatest strength. It has a universally loved flavour!

You’ll soon adapt to your newly enhanced environment. Gelato is a feel-good strain that’s excellent for social settings and group seshes.
