Gelato #45 strain is a perfect example and execution of selective breeding from the Barney’s Farm lab. Gelato #45 strain parents Sunset Sherbert and Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies provided, after selection a beautifully balanced 60% Indica hybrid, a perfect choice for growers with all levels of experience, extremely forgiving but also very versatile for a wide range of growing techniques.
Gelato #45 weed has an extraordinary, unique flavour and contrasting aroma profile with subtle hints of earthy pines, flowers and skunky notes of citrus, while the deliciously sweet aromas resemble mint-chocolate ice cream and fruity sweet berries. Gelato #45 is a strong robust plant reaching 100-120cm indoors given the time to grow with a flowering time of just 70 days. Outdoors she can grow easily up to 2-2.5m reaching maturity by the start of October.
Dark vibrant shades of lime and olive-green large fan leaves evolve during its growth then in the right hands with the final stages of flowering a spectacular array of colours emerge. With a backdrop beautiful contrasting leaves displaying deep purples, with fading reds and orange tints. Densely compacted orbital shaped buds continually swelling in size, covered deep purple sugar leaves are gradually engulfed in the swollen lime green resin glands covered with bright amber pistils and golden coating of sticky resinous trichomes as she matures.
The Gelato #45 strain by Barneys Farm is 40% Sativa 60% Indica.
To properly store Gelato #45 seeds, it is recommended to keep them cool and dark in an airtight container ideally in a refrigerator with proper labeling and dating, avoiding freezing.

Strain FAQ
Do genetics affect cannabis strain sweetness?
Absolutely! Sweet strains include Indica and Sativa genetics. This genetic variability gives hybrid strains a wide range of sweet flavours.
Are these early-finishing cannabis strains culturally or historically significant?
Absolutely. Many mid-October strains have been grown for generations in some places and have cultural and historical relevance. Many are named after either their origin or unique qualities from their natural environment.
What Gelato Crosses are famous?
Breeders have been creating Gelato hybrids to increase its well deserved legacy. Gelato #33 x Zkittlez adds candy flavours, while Gelato x Wedding Cake adds vanilla and spice. Gelato + OG Kush is said to combine intellectual highs with body-calming euphoria.
How do feminized cannabis strains work?
A particular breeding method removes male chromosomes from feminised cannabis plants. Feminised seeds result in plants that are nearly always female (99%) and ready to produce THC and CBD-rich buds. It works like magic to give producers flower-producing plants!
Can 12/12 photoperiod strains produce male flowers under stress?
Yes, the 12/12 timetable might be tricky because some strains may produce male flowers when stressed. A steady hand is said to be required to manage light and climatic conditions to keep the crop seed-free.
