Effects

While this strain is famous for its yummy flavours, it is also recognized for its potency and blissful high. Blue Gelato 41 washes you over with a wave of physical relaxation, and while it is strong enough to help numb physical aches and pains, it is not at all too sedative or couch-locking. Even though it is indica leaning, the strain does give users a pleasurable cerebral head high as well; the cerebral experience is often characterized as psychedelic, uplifting, and lightly energetic, and because of these effects, it has been reported to be helpful for those dealing with depression, anxiety, stress and fatigue. The strain even sharpens your sense of focus, catering to those with ADD/ADHD, which is not too common with stronger indica-dominant strains. Because of its uplifting nature and relaxing effects that don’t tire users out, Blue Gelato 41 could be an ideal choice for medical users looking for effective daytime or afternoon strains.

THC Content

The THC count of Blue Gelato 41 by Barney’s Farm typically measures at 27%, but can range between 25% to a whopping high of 29%. Its effects are relatively well-balanced between indica and sativa, but its genetic makeup makes it indica-dominant at 60%:40% sativa. It has quite a decorated family tree: one of its parents, Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies, averaging at 24% THC, is actually a Cannabis Cup winner and cult favourite, and it is from this strain that Blue Gelato 41 takes on some of its sweet dessert-like flavours; Sunset Sherbert, also an indica-dominant hybrid, is a cross of Pink Panties and the famous Girl Scout Cookies and also bears delicious fruity flavours. The third parent, Blueberry, another indica-dominant hybrid averaging up to 24% THC and 1% CBN, is one of the most popular strains on the market and was also a High Times Cannabis Cup Winner for Best Indica; the addition of this strain into the mix allowed Barney’s Farm to create the amazing Blue Gelato 41 we have today!

Appearance & Aroma

Staying true to its name, the round olive green buds of Blue Gelato 41 by Barney’s Farm do have nice blue undertones; much like ice cream stuck in the freezer for too long, there is also a layer of trichomes that gives it a nice frosty appearance. But, these pretty looks are not what this strain is known for. Borrowing from its parents, all of which are dessert and fruit strains, the Blue Gelato 41 is one mouthwatering treat. The terpene profile includes notes of sweet blueberries, fresh citrus, sour oranges, smooth vanilla and herbs. While this may sound overwhelming in terms of different flavours, this mixture of freshness, fruits and sweetness is nicely balanced and offers an amazing high with a deliciously unforgettable taste!
