Acai Berry Gelato
Also known as: Acai Gelato, Acaiberry Gelato
Overview
Acai Berry Gelato is a sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain composed of 70% sativa and 30% indica genetics, originally bred by Sherbinskis in San Francisco's Sunset District. This strain is created by crossing Thin Mint Cookies and Sunset Sherbet, though some sources indicate the lineage as Pink Panties x Sunset Sherbet. The strain presents as a gorgeous, deep purple plant dripping with trichomes, featuring dense nugs that grow in tight bunches, with deep green coloration and purple hints accented by bright orange hairs and minuscule but deeply-colored amber trichomes.
As part of the prestigious Gelato family, Acai Berry Gelato offers a full-flavored smoke with sweet and fruity notes, hints of earth reminiscent of other gelato strains, and a slightly sour tropical exhale. The strain's aroma profile combines earthy, tropical citrus, and flavors of sweet cream and berries with fresh floral aroma combined with woody, pine, and citrus notes. Acai Berry Gelato has as much as 32% THC, though typical ranges fall between 15.5 - 19.5%, making it suitable for experienced and moderate users seeking a potent yet manageable experience.

The strain can be harvested in 68 days, growing for about 58-61 days, reaching 60-80 inches in height both indoors and outdoors. The yield size is usually 1-2 oz per square foot, while indoors can yield between 1 and 2 ounces per square foot, and outdoors can produce 15 to 20 ounces per plant.
