What are the Flavor and Effects of Gelato 48

Gelato 48 offers a complex scent and flavor profile. A fragrant mix of blueberry and citrus aroma with an earthy hint exudes from a properly cured Gelato 48 bud. Combusting these buds gives off a thick and lung-expanding smoke. Inhaling the smoke tastes of hints of lavender and sandalwood along with the dominant orange and berry flavors.

The high from smoking this strain kicks in fast and strongly. Users must go easy on this potent strain as it can come off as overwhelming especially when consumed in large amounts. Users’ sensory perceptions get amplified, making the surroundings seem more vibrant and interesting. The cerebral effects of the high induce focus and creativity. As this head high settles down, the relaxing body buzz starts to creep in. This may deter motor skills while still allowing the users to maintain significant mobility. Gradually and eventually, it induces a deep sense of calm leading ultimately to a couch-lock. Users may find themselves lulled into a restful sleep.

What are the Medical Benefits of Gelato 48

Gelato 48 marijuana is not just loved by recreational marijuana users, but by medical users as well. This strain offers some promising therapeutic effects. This is the good consequence of its relaxing and numbing effect. It helps in alleviating the pains of migraines, headaches, arthritis, neuropathic pains and spasms. This strain’s relaxing high is also known to elevate the mood of its users which offers a temporary relief from the symptoms of stress, anxiety and depression.

The munchies effect of this strain can be used to induce hunger among patients suffering from eating disorders, chemotherapy-induced regurgitation and even AIDS. Its heavily sedating effects can also induce sleep among patients struggling with insomnia.

Negative Effects You Can Expect from Gelato 48

Gelato 48 is a potent strain that can prove to be quite overwhelming to its users. A few puffs of the smoke of this strain is enough to enjoy the wonderful experience it offers. Excessive use of this strain can lead to paranoia and anxiety attacks. Most common adverse effects also include having dry eyes and dry mouth. On rare occasions, users may also experience lightheadedness.

How to Grow Gelato 48

Growing Gelato 48 seeds is recommended if one wants to secure his own dose of the strain since this weed is not commonly sold. With its indica physical attributes at an advantage, this strain is suitable for indoor cultivation, although it also thrives in sunny outdoor environments. Expert growers suggest that the Gelato 48 seedling must be planted in a large container to avoid the hassles of transplanting it later. This will prevent the adverse effects of “transplant shock” since the Gelato 48 strain is quite sensitive. 

Growers must also maintain the conditions in the grow room since this strain’s dense buds are sensitive to high humidity. For most of its flowering period, an RH level of 40% to 50% must be maintained. This is only allowed to drop to 30% to 40% a week or two before the cycle ends. The temperature, on the other hand, must be maintained between 20°C to 26°C. With optimal conditions, growers can expect to harvest yields of 500 to 700 grams per plant.
