Strain Description
Green Gelato is a highly regarded hybrid cannabis strain from Royal Queen Seeds. It is created by crossing Thin Mint Cookies with Sunset Sherbet, resulting in a delectable and potent dessert-like strain. With a flowering time of 8-10 weeks, it offers a flavorful and aromatic experience for cannabis enthusiasts. The genetics of Green Gelato come from the San Francisco Bay area, known for its exceptional cannabis strains. The strain was developed through careful selection and breeding, with the aim of creating a premium hybrid blend. Green Gelato stands out as one of the most potent and flavorsome strains to come out of this project. When it comes to growing Green Gelato, it is slightly indica-dominant and responds well to various pruning and training techniques. It tends to grow to a medium-tall height with a high flower to leaf ratio. Techniques like topping, low-stress training (LST), mainlining, and the Screen of Green (ScrOG) method are recommended for maximizing yield. The buds form in tight clusters and may develop lavender and purple colors with cooler nighttime temperatures during the flowering stage. For indoor cultivation, Green Gelato typically requires 8-9 weeks under a standard 12-12 light cycle before it is ready for harvest. Whether you choose to grow organically or with hydroponics, it is important to finish with a thorough flush to enhance the fragrance and flavor profile of the buds. The flavor profile of Green Gelato is influenced by its parent strains. The Thin Mint phenotype of Girl Scout Cookies contributes a sweet, minty biscuit flavor, while Sunset Sherbet adds an orange citrus twist. The resulting combination is a fruity confection with hints of Kush, baked goods, and forest fruits. The buds of Green Gelato are dense, orange-haired, and often showcase purple hues, making them visually appealing as well. In terms of effects, Green Gelato is known for its potency, with THC levels exceeding 25%. When consumed, it provides a delightful sensory experience that combines a surge of energy, enhanced creativity, and an overwhelmingly positive mood. However, the strain also induces a relaxing effect on the body, often described as making one feel like a jellyfish. Green Gelato has gained recognition among growers and has been awarded the title of “Best New European Strain for 2019” by Soft Secrets. Royal Queen Seeds takes pride in producing high-quality and flavorful strains, making them a trusted source for cannabis enthusiasts.
