Gelato strain has different names and different effects. It is a relatively young strain, born in San Francisco. One of the most famous, recognizable, and trusted companies in the market, Cookie Fam Genetics, decided to create something completely new yet as good as the best strains already available. So, they took two top hybrids Thin Mint GSC and Sherbet, and created this stunning strain also known as thirty-third phenotype or just Larry Bird. This Indica-dominant hybrid strain has wonderful flavors and 16-19% THC, so this is not only delicious but also a very full-body marijuana strain.
There are two types of seeds for this strain: Gelato Autoflower seeds and Gelato Feminized seeds.

i swear i have felt increased energy with other strains before but not like this one. I think Potaholic#1 may be right about the beauty ofhigh CBD plants. I may be shifting to Indica dominant strain from now on with this baby at the top of my list of lists.
I have battled depression for over a year and i wish i stumbled on Gelato earlier. For a month I have not felt the gloomy funk that comes with thinking i suck and everything is hopeless. Now, i feel happy even when I haven't used the weed for over a week. it may be too early but i think i sucker punched the hell out of that depression.
the berry smell and taste had me feeling like i was in heaven. This must be that cloud 9 everyone's talking about.
One of the best giggly highs I have had in ages. I was laughing at any and everything. I legit looked crazy.
Get me any strain with medium CBD anyday anytime. That's where its all at believe me.
I would really like to grow gelato but can't mange the odor issue during flowering stage
What I like in Gelato is the Berry taste
I always take this grass everytime my angel is around. It perfectly prepares me for the mega match! Want to know why?I get damn aroused
Not lucky with this flower. Experienced some dizziness after poking
I am a classic stoner and gelato strain gives me all I anticipate in MJ
Had been having pains and migraines for longer than you can imagine but thank God for Larry Bird. Was recommended by a friend and took it for the first time. The effect was instant and got relieved sooner than I expected
What an herb!The best way to get uplifted and feel as high as f**k. Can't ignore it's aroma and taste. Oooh the fuitest and fabulosly sweetest ganga smelll that keeps on calling for moooooreee puffs
This is a very very good strain, got some other dispensary in Michigan and my first experience with it was absolutely stunning I absolutely my jaw dropped I could not believe how complex the high actually was. Super good for insomnia, way better than antidepressants I'm not big on taste although it does help it did taste good I'm just I'm more on the effects and on the taste. I have about 10 grows under my belt I've got it pretty well down so I don't expect to have any problems I have ordered five seeds from Growers choice and hope that they deliver like they usually do with good genetics. I enjoy growing in myself for medicinal purposes as well as recreational I like the fact that I know what I'm putting on my plants and I've gotten stuff off the street it's just horrible it's has dark black hard ass and you know it's not good for you so I pretty much grow my own medicine now this is definitely on the top of my list for a long time.!
Gelato is one of the best strains they found
I got some, not properly cured, it was quit wet, but still sticky. It got a good citrus predominent smell, with hint of something I don't get, but it does smell like a piece of cake almost. Nice strong high, which is balanced, like I could clearly feel the head high and the body high. I wasn't too sedated, I was still able to do basic stuff, but with laziness, it got me quit creative, this was the best part of it. It could help for insomnia, depression, and pain I guess, at least this is how it worked on me, I didn't get hungry though
I gave this strain my girlfriend during the date. Omg, our night was unforgettable. I would try to do the same. Guys, this weed has aroused effect and make miracles, just share with your girls if you are looking for passion and smth new.

Wish I knew this weed earlier. I felt so much pain in my muscular. And that pain made my mood awful. But gelato deprived me of those terrible feelings in my body. Now I’m feeling better and can relax on evenings.

This flower has a great taste and smell. It is one of my favorites as it hits right on. It has a good body and head high. I prefer using it in the late afternoon and evening since its effects tend to slow me down.
Very relaxing. I love it.
Very good head high, but it gives me a slight headache. It feels like the head is crushing on the shoulders
Very smooth smoke that you will love.
