Indica-Dominant Hybrid

Calming
Energizing

Gelato, sometimes known as “Zelato” or “Larry Bird,” is a cross between the strains Sunset Sherbet and Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies (GSC). This sweet and satisfying hybrid is the perfect end-of-day treat, just like the dessert it’s named after. Gelato is known for its powerful and euphoria-inducing high, which mellows out into a relaxing and pain-relieving experience over time. Its dense purple buds with bright orange hairs make Gelato a true beauty. If you’re looking to disconnect from stress, pain, and sleepless nights, Gelato might just be the strain for you.

Reviews

Gelato is always in my top 3. A super happy and heavy strain. I'm floating all the way to get my snacks and sinking into the couch without falling asleep. Awake yet mega relaxed! By far my favorite hybrid.

I always smoke before I hit the gym. The Gelato Strain is one of the best ones to pick. It keeps my body relaxed and pain-free and I'm still alert enough to get through my entire workout. It's also great for relaxing at home afterwards/in my free time. Great strain!

This is by far the most productive strain I have ever smoked! I tend to prefer sativas during the day but Gelato has me the most motivated to do my work than any other strains I have tried and I don't get any kind of jitters! Stress-free and hard working.

FAQs

Is Gelato a sativa or indica strain?

Gelato is an indica-leaning hybrid strain that’s about 55% Cannabis indica and 45% Cannabis sativa. That means it delivers both energizing and mellowing effects, depending on the dose and your individual bodily reaction. 

Is Gelato a good high?

Gelato’s high is euphoric, relaxing, and mentally-stimulating, which makes it perfect for anyone looking to enjoy themselves without blasting off too far into space. It’s also great for evening use since it can relieve pain, reduce stress, and help you fall asleep.

Is the Gelato strain good for arousal?

Arousal is one of Gelato’s most commonly-reported effects, so we’d say it’s a good choice! Because it tends to keep your mind going while freeing you from bodily effects like pain or stress, Gelato can certainly help you get in the mood.
