Green Gelato Auto Strain Information

Green Gelato Auto exemplifies just how far modern autoflowering strains have come. With sky-high THC levels and insanely sweet terpenes, this cultivar outperforms many photoperiod strains across most metrics. But how exactly did our skilled breeders create such a powerhouse? Well, it all started with the original Green Gelato strain. Derived from parent strains Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies and Sunset Sherbet, Green Gelato boasts a massive THC content of up to 27% and delicious flavours of grape, citrus, and mint. Hues of deep purple make her buds stand out in a crowd.

Next up, the breeding team brought Cookies Auto genetics into the equation. This time-tested autoflowering phenom passed down lightning-fast growing times to Green Gelato Auto, as well as sugary-sweet flavours and general hardiness. Overall, Green Gelato Auto possesses 55% sativa genetics, 40% indica, and 5% ruderalis.

Green Gelato Autoflower Characteristics

Green Gelato Auto merges swift cultivation times, enormous amounts of THC, sweet terpenes, and sizeable yields into one easy-to-grow package. Indoors, plants grow to 70–120 cm and produce a rewarding yield of 375–450 g/m². Apply some training if you want plants to maintain a shorter stature ideal for tight spaces and stealth growing. Plants grown outdoors in a sunny spot will reach a height of 100–120 cm and offer a return of 175 g/plant. Prepare to start pulling in buds in as little as 9–10 weeks from germination. The brief vegetative phase lasts only 2–3 of these weeks, with flowering taking up the remaining 7–8 weeks. Her hardy genetics means Green Gelato Auto can handle a range of environmental conditions, and her rapid growth makes it possible to squeeze in a harvest relatively late in the growing season.

• Green Gelato Auto Taste

Green Gelato Auto inherited most of her aromatic qualities from her mouthwatering Green Gelato parent. The strain tastes primarily like candy, with undertones of earth and fruit alongside hints of nuttiness. The chief terpenes responsible for these tastes include myrcene and limonene; various esters and volatile sulphur compounds also play a crucial role. While Green Gelato takes most of the credit for the progeny’s delightful flavours, Cookies Auto also pulled her weight. This strain passed down even more sugary terpenes to tip the flavour profile further towards the sweet end of the spectrum. While these tastes are more than evident while smoking Green Gelato Auto, you’ll get a true sense of her flavour when vaping the flowers.

• Green Gelato Auto Effects

Green Gelato Auto’s THC level clocks in at a staggering 24%—a concentration previously unheard of in autoflowering genetics. So, what exactly should you expect before firing up a blunt, bong bowl, or vape full of Green Gelato Auto flowers? Well, her effect comes on hard and fast—initially, you’ll experience a stimulating, creative, and cerebral effect. You’ll feel more outgoing and talkative, and novel ideas will flood your mind. As the experience progresses, the clear-headed effect remains noticeable, but your body will become more relaxed and you’ll feel a subtle stoning effect come on. After making it over the peak of the high, you’ll slowly float back down to earth, enjoying a warm and euphoric afterglow as the THC slowly loses its grip.

Growing Green Gelato Autoflower

Growing the Green Gelato Autoflower is an enjoyable and leisurely experience. The sheer speed of her growth removes any impatience from the equation, and her hardiness in the face of insects, pests, and fluctuating temperatures makes the cultivar easy to look after, even for novices. Below, we’ll walk you through what to expect during each stage of the growing cycle, from germination all the way to harvest time. Let’s get into it!

• Germinating Green Gelato Auto

Green Gelato Auto cannabis seeds are known for their superior germination rate and speed. Sow seeds directly into 11-litre fabric pots filled with a high-quality growing medium amended with plenty of organic matter and beneficial microbes. Inputs such as mycorrhizal fungi will enhance both root system development and nutrient acquisition. Likewise, Trichoderma serves as an excellent biostimulant and competes with potentially harmful microbes around the root zone.

Place your seeds into a 2 cm-deep hole, cover lightly with soil, and mist well. Start running your grow lights for 24 hours per day as soon as sprouts breach the surface to prevent leggy growth. Try to maintain a constant temperature of around 25°C to facilitate optimal growth.

• Vegetative Phase

At the end of the second week of the vegetative phase, your seedling will stand around 10 cm tall. Apply organic liquid fertilisers high in nitrogen, such as seaweed and fish emulsion, to drive vegetative growth. During the third week of veg, Green Gelato Auto will put her indica-dominant genetics on full display; you’ll marvel at her broad, luscious leaves and bushy morphology. Apply training techniques during this time, such as LST, to limit the height of your plants and boost their productivity. If you’re planning on moving your grow outside, do so now. Your plants will have developed thick cell walls that will increase their odds against insect attacks, and their firm stems will help them stand strong in gusts of wind.

During the final week of veg, trained plants will stand at around 50 cm, with untrained plants topping out at 100 cm. You’ll start to notice the first signs of pre-flowers emerge in the form of small white pistils protruding from the nodes. Use this opportunity to get some defoliation done. Check for any older or yellowing leaves and give them the snip. Then, find any leaves that are obstructing direct light from hitting pre-flowers and remove them. That’s it—you’re ready for a successful flowering phase!

• Flowering Phase

As flowering hormone production increases at the start of bloom, you can expect your plants to begin stretching. During the first few weeks of bloom, trained plants will reach a height of 80–100 cm while untrained plants will peak at 120 cm. Switch over to a fertiliser higher in potassium and phosphorus to drive healthy bud development. Towards the end of bloom, you’ll notice pistils transition from a brilliant white appearance to orange and bronze. Under magnification, you’ll also notice trichomes switch from translucent to milky and opaque. Flush your plants two weeks before harvest by withholding all nutrients, improving the flavour and smoothness of your bounty when it’s time to blaze up. After a couple of weeks of administering nothing but water, you’ll be ready to harvest those mature and aromatic buds.

• Harvest

When all is said and done, you’ll be able to bring in up to 450 g/m² from indoor plants and 100–175 g/plant from those grown outside. While the bulk of the work has come to an end, you still have some very important jobs to do in order to properly process your buds—namely, drying and curing. First of all, begin by chopping your plant at the base, just above where the main stem meets the soil. Next, hang your entire plant upside down from the top of your grow room, or any other dark, dry, and well-ventilated area. After 5–10 days, you can ensure your plant has dried out adequately by snapping the stems. They should break clean and appear cracker dry. From here, begin removing your buds from the stems and trim off the excess sugar leaves.

Next, place your buds in glass jars with humidity packs to cure for around six weeks, burping them regularly. This process ensures the best possible flavour and potency and prepares the buds for longer-term storage.
