Green Gelato is perhaps the most deliciously dank hybrid in the whole RQS collection. Thin Mint Cookies and Sunset Sherbet come together to create our richest, most luscious dessert cannabis strain yet. Treat yourself and the grow-op to the tastiest marijuana you can possibly flower in 8–9 weeks.
Fresh out of the dank genetic oven of the San Francisco Bay area comes the hottest Cookies hybrid ever. By crossing Thin Mint Cookies with Sunset Sherbet, a new era of dessert cannabis has dawned. #33 “Larry Bird” proved to be the magic pot number for Green Gelato—the standout specimen from the best of the best of Cali’s Weed dessert cannabis. Crosses went in all directions in pursuit of the perfect hybrid blend. Green Gelato is the most potent and most flavoursome result of the project.
Gelato (the dessert) is so much more delicious than plain old ice cream. And it’s for a very good reason. Gelato is a connoisseur-grade treat. In fact, in Italy, strict quality standards and specific ingredients must be used to legally call a frozen dessert gelato. We qualify our Green Gelato by adhering to equally professional artisanal practices. Exclusive genetics from the San Francisco Bay area is the only way to make genuine Gelato.
Green Gelato is a slightly indica-dominant hybrid that responds well to pruning and training. Plants grow medium-tall with a very high flower to leaf ratio. Topping, fimming, LST, mainlining, and the ScrOG method are all highly recommended for max yield. Flowers form in tight, small–medium sized clusters rather than long-running colas. Cooler nighttime temperatures late in bloom tend to promote the development of lavender and purple colours in nugs. Indoors, Green Gelato will be ready for harvest after just 8–9 weeks of standard 12-12.
The Thin Mint phenotype of Girl Scout Cookies is arguably the tastiest. By whisking the sweet, minty biscuit flavour together with the orange citrus twist provided by Sunset Sherbet, the delectably dank Green Gelato is created in a combo of fruity confection. Purple hues enhance the dense, orange-haired buds’ aesthetics. Plus, a loud yet alluring aroma of Kush, baked goods, and forest fruits will bring most stoners close to sensory overload. That’s before you’ve even experienced the effects of 25%+ THC Green Gelato nugs.
You will be shocked and awed without a doubt. In a good way. Green Gelato delights the senses before you have a chance to process the tremendous potency of the near-narcotic gas you’ve just inhaled. Yummy, yummy, huh I feel kind of funny, maybe I should siiiiit doooowwwnn. The mind is charged with a pulse of energy and creativity. And your mood is unbelievably positive too, but the body plays jellyfish.

Strain FAQ
What terpenes give cannabis its minty taste?
Several terpenes give a minty flavour. Though menthol isn't a frequent cannabis terpene, chemicals like pulegone, with its minty scent, and eucalyptol, with its freshness, play important roles. Limonene and pinene finish the minty scent with a clean, fresh note.
The economic and ecological benefits of these strains?
Early-flowering cultivars are said to be able to boost efficiency by allowing for an earlier harvest. This decreases crop loss from weather or pests. Operating with the seasons is also said to reduce the need for artificial lighting and heating, making it more sustainable and better for the environment.
Gelato challenges?
Bringing forth the purple hues and vivid pistils of Gelato is said to require a great effort. These beautiful flowers reportedly require milder temperatures, therefore those who can handle them will be rewarded.
Can feminised cannabis strains create male flowers?
Feminised strains are designed to be nearly always female, yet nature can occasionally throw them curveballs. They may produce male flowers under extreme stress such as irregular light cycles or environmental pressure. This shows that even with thorough genetic selection, other factors are necessary to keep plants on track!
Why do SE Asian strains flower later?
These strains have sativa traits, which extend flowering to 10–14 weeks. Due to their native climates' long growing seasons, they flower longer, allowing them to reach their full potential.
