Gelato reviews

First time having this, and it did not disappoint. A nice body high, helps you mellow out and relax. Very enjoyable, will certainly recommend to anyone looking for a nice chill high.

This shit made my cock bigger! From 7 to 9 She loved the strain and the best part! If you know what I mean …. Mmmm…. Cloud 9

We are a lesbian couple from the greater NYC area, so you know we bool out every day. Recently, we hit up our favorite plug. He said that he was out of his top shelf bud, but gave us this instead. Expecting a mediocre high, we were blown away. It was a full moon last night, and we sat on a flat rock near a pond, allowing nature to flow into the bud for the optimal experience. Upon first rip, this strain took us in her hands and slowly raised us to a mild head high to begin. The taste can only be described as pure kush, the ultimate flavor and scent of "classic weed." There were no citrus tones, though I detected a mild earthiness. We began chatting about deep shit and also exchanging knowledge and talking about interesting things. Then, about 5 minutes and one more bowl in, I felt the high in my tongue and mouth, and slowly the sensation crept down into a beautiful body high. I felt the energy of the moon and the forest around us. After about 15 minutes, we felt a mild paranoia that there were murderers in the woods, and we retreated quickly to the house. We also got spooked by a door opening, but false alarm. This was the only negative point in the high. Now, near to our abode, I felt the comforting energy of the high in my chest and heart. We decided that we needed to learn, and decided to watch a documentary. We got distracted and talked and laughed and kissed for 30 minutes, soaking each other in with waves of energy and euphoria. We were super into our documentary (check out the history of us on the history channel) and the strain once again softly cradled our minds and bodies as she lowered us down over the next hour. Overall, this was an incredible experience. This is what weed is meant to be.

Gelato was one of the first three strains that I purchased from a recreational dispensary in southern Illinois back in spring of 2021 and it was the first of the three that I finished. Overall, I really enjoy Gelato and appreciate it's legendary reputation as a well-balanced hybrid. Even at a lower THC percentage (mine tested at 22.3%), this strain provides a very lucid, yet highly relaxing and euphoric experience, complete with pretty good (calming) body effects and modest closed eye visuals (CEV?). At higher, more sustained doses, couch-lock can be pretty severe as is uncomfortable introspection (more on this later). A more recent experience with Gelato left me with a newfound appreciation, however: I recently underwent emergency gastrointestinal surgery which resulted in some serious life-style changes (a colostomy) and significant abdominal discomfort from the invasive nature of the surgery and extensive surgical scars. The surgery was two weeks ago and since then, I did not consume any cannabis products until I was safely off of prescription pain medicine. Gelato was the first strain I turned to once I decided to resume my cannabis regimen. I loaded up my S&B Mighty and settled in for an afternoon of watching Mastodon (hard rock band) album visualizers on TV while sitting in my recliner. What a phenomenal afternoon! The Gelato kicked in about 15 minutes after I took several decent hits (Seems like I always have delayed effects as compared to other users...). I felt myself sinking into my recliner, body totally at ease, arms resting on the rests, head supported by a very comfy pillow. I became absolutely mesmerized by the music and hypnotic artwork from the visualizer(s). Music and lyrics sounded so much clearer and richer. Colors and artistic details were so much more vibrant and captivating. My mind just got lost on the music and lovely colors...lol. FOR HOURS. I continued to take moderate, sustained hits every 20-30 minutes thereafter, for about two hours which allowed me to find and maintain a very nice high that extended well into the early evening hours. I did struggle with some significant couch lock, after the first hour and had to force myself to rise from the chair eventually (to feed!) During this period, I also practiced some guided mental imagery meditation and reiki yoga tools while high on Gelato. To this end, I envisioned a bright orange and yellow light, that slowly expanded from my left hand to fill my entire body with a warm, restorative feeling of benevolence and healing. I swear it made my stomach and surgical wounds feel as if they were non-existent. In my mind, I knew that I'm going to survive this period and will everything will be o.k. in time. It was seriously the best I've felt in two weeks. Much needed peace and acceptance was found. The warming energy continued to fill me until my body couldn't contain all of the energy and it began to geyser forth from my head, radiating out to friends and loved ones in a white-hot and shimmering rainbow of gold & silver sparks. It was one of the benevolent feelings I've ever had, like I genuinely wanted to share the same restorative feeling with my wife and loved ones. It was a supremely loving feeling and just felt so good...better than any prescription pain medicine for sure. There ain't no such thing as a free lunch, though, and Gelato warrants consideration for two reasons: 1. Overly introspective thought is common with this strain. I often catch myself thinking about things that I prefer not to think about: work, doctor visits, concern over inter-personal relationships, and stress of imagined future confrontations. I often find that Gelato allows otherwise insignificant and inconsequential thoughts that would usually be swept off into the periphery of my consciousness, to take center stage and dominate thought to the point of unpleasantness and paranoia. I often have to redirect thoughts back to more "positive" venues to avoid anxiety and agitation. As such, Gelato is best consumed when you can really focus on something very enjoyable or pleasurable to ensure the mind doesn't wander to darker streams of consciousness. 2. Munchies: expect them on this strain. Maybe because my digestive system is still healing and I lost so much weight recently, but about half-way through my most recent session, I was possessed by a ravenous case of the munchies. I devoured ice-cream, pretzels, more ice-cream, bananas, a mango, and then more ice-cream. I've had munchies before, on this strain, but never like this. Thank the gods that I need to gain weight, because Gelato provides a sure-fire mechanism to do so, lol. Overall, Gelato is great. The dense, tightly bound nugs impart an earthy, sweet smell on the exhale that is reminiscent of fresh cut hay. I can't describe the terpene profile as eloquently as others, but it is definitely "sweet" and lives up to its namesake. It's aroma definitely makes one want to consume this wonderful flower. Gelato is a very enjoyable strain, indeed, and the only reason I can't give it 5 stars is due simply to the overly-introspective thoughts that it seems to produce.

Best high ever. I’m newer to smoking and this strain is incredible. I can dance for hours and it’s so great

Probably the nicest weed I've ever smoked. Tastes superb, doesn't get better than this.

Absolutely LOVE this strain. I grab it whenever I can.

"Lab Tested 33.47 THC". 33.47! This is the highest number I've ever seen advertised for any strain, so I sprang for an ounce of this crop of Gelato, and man, I'm sure glad I did. I've smoked Gelato before, but when I inspected the buds at the dispensary, this batch was undoubtably exceptional. All of the great features of Gelato, the deep purples mixed in with massive patches of orange hairs streaking the buds with a multi colored coat, were present in this crop, but something quite interesting about this set of buds is their huge crystalline structures that shimmer in sunlight or even incandescent light. When I saw these buds in their big glass jar at the dispensary, I felt like a child again, (it is Christmas time), who had just seen Santa, and had his wishlist granted. I bit the bullet, and bought an ounce. Mama was a little pissed, until she took her first hit of this "Super Gelato". Now I'm a hero. Go figure. I was skeptical of the 33.47% THC number, but not anymore. It's 11:18 am, Christmas Eve morning, and every is gone. I had nothing on my plate for the afternoon, so I ground up a small bud of Gelato and loaded my little glass pipe. Two hits later, and am a believer, yes sir, I have seen the light. This may be the strongest mojo this old toker has had the honor to consume. I've been smoking fine herb for over 45 years, (always have tried to procure the best marijuana and hash available; I have been fortunate in this regard), and this Gelato had me dazed and confused for15 minutes after the pipeload, and I like this in my weed! This is a Man's Weed, no disrespect to the ladies, just a description of the power of this,particularly potent variety of Mother Nature's bounty. Novice consumers be forewarned: "Paranoia strikes deep; into your lives it will creep; it starts when you're always afraid..." Buffalo Springfield. In other words new explorers in the world of cannabis please,use caution with this material, and never attempt to juggle running chainsaws, shoot high caliber firearms, or even unload the dishwasher, after smoking anything with a 33.47% THC rating. Gelato, thank you for sacrificing yourself up in smoke for me. I speak to my weed before I light up, offering a little prayer of thanks, and then an intention, then fire 'me up. Merry Christmas dear people!
