Gelato Strain: A Delightful and Uplifting Experience

What You Can Expect When You Try Gelato

You can expect to feel:

Happy

Excited

Aroused

For an uplifting, euphoric, and adventurous experience, Gelato may be just the ticket. This stimulating strain offers a boost of energy and an elevated mood, while the body high tackles aches and pains. Expect to feel relaxed, yet alert and ready to take on the day.

When it comes to aroma and flavor, Gelato’s name says it all. You’ll get sweet, creamy smells and tastes when consuming this strain, along with fruity notes that make for a delightful anytime treat.

Gelato tends to be on the low to moderate side in terms of potency, making it a great choice if you’re new to cannabis or don’t want a ton of THC in your sesh. If you’ve been around the cannabis block, you may need a bit more Gelato to achieve the desired effects.

Remember: There’s no universal experience when it comes to any cannabis strain (cultivar). You may have a different experience when you try Gelato — and that’s OK!

Is Gelato good for whole-body relief?

Yes, Gelato excels at relaxing your body, with a soothing and tingly sensation to boot. Unlike some strains that produce this sort of body high, though, Gelato won’t leave your mind feeling cloudy. Quite the opposite, in fact: you’ll likely feel compelled to get up and moving. This makes Gelato a great daytime strain that can help you shake off your aches and discomfort and attack your to-do list with confidence.

Is Gelato an indica, sativa, or hybrid strain?

Gelato is a balanced hybrid strain that evenly blends indica and sativa genetics. The result is an experience that combines the best of both worlds, providing both full-body relief and a cerebral, stimulating head high.

It’s good to remember, though, that the effects associated with indica, sativa, and hybrid labels are not a guarantee. These categories refer to plant genetics, and not the cannabinoids and terpenes that shape your experience. So to get a sense of how a strain like Gelato makes you feel, take a close look at the test results instead of the indica, sativa, or hybrid label.

How much THC is in Gelato?

Gelato tends to contain low to moderate amounts of THC, typically ranging from 17% to 20% THC content. Overall, it’s not a super potent strain, but can serve the needs of both low and high-tolerance consumers fairly well. Expect a rapid onset of effects, too, so you can quickly judge whether or not you need to consume more to meet your expectations.

Gelato essentials: What you need to know before you try

What two strains make Gelato?

Gelato results from a cross between Sunset Sherbet and Thin Mint GSC. These parent strains lend both indica and sativa genetics to Gelato, making it an evenly balanced hybrid that offers something for everyone to enjoy.

Gelato THC and CBD content

Gelato contains relatively low amounts of Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), averaging around 17% THC content. It may reach upwards of 20% THC content in some cases, but overall it won’t be the most potent strain you encounter. For low-tolerance consumers, a small amount of Gelato may be perfect. Those with higher tolerances can still get a lot out of this strain, though may need to consume a bit more to feel those effects.

In terms of minor cannabinoids, Gelato contains nearly zero Cannabidiol (CBD). It does, however, contain significant amounts of Cannabinol (CBN) and Cannabigerol (CBG), reaching up to 1% of each. It may seem like a small percentage, but it’s a lot in terms of minor cannabinoid content.

What terpenes are in Gelato?

Gelato tends to have a caryophyllene-dominant terpene profile. This peppery terpene, also found in cinnamon and cloves, is a favorite for whole-body relaxation and relief. In addition to caryophyllene, Gelato contains high amounts of limonene and humulene. These terpenes are both known for their uplifting effects and likely contribute to Gelato’s energizing and mood-boosting effects.

The Gelato sensory experience

The name “Gelato” evokes a sweet, silky, creamy dessert for a reason, and this strain doesn’t disappoint. Expect a vanilla aroma with a touch of mint in this delightful dessert strain, and a similarly sweet flavor with a touch of fruitiness when consumed. Although the dessert is usually consumed in the evenings, you can indulge in Gelato cannabis products at any time of day.
