Acaiberry Gelato
Also known as: Acai Berry Gelato, Acai Gelato, Acai Berry
Acaiberry Gelato Strain Overview
Acaiberry Gelato is a sativa-dominant hybrid strain (70% sativa, 30% indica) created through crossing Pink Panties and Sunset Sherbet. Developed by the renowned breeder Sherbinskis from San Francisco, this strain is a member of the celebrated Gelato family, known for its dessert-like characteristics and potent effects. The strain takes its name from the nutrient-rich acai berry superfood, though it delivers a cannabis experience rather than health benefits.
Visually striking, Acaiberry Gelato features dense, tightly-packed olive green nugs with deep purple undertones, bright orange hairs (pistils), and a generous coating of tiny deep amber crystal trichomes. The buds grow in tight bunches on tall plants with slender sativa-type leaves. The appearance is particularly notable for its vibrant purple coloration, inherited from its parent genetics.
The strain offers a complex flavor profile dominated by sweet, creamy berry notes with tropical citrus undertones and a slightly sour tropical exhale. The aroma follows suit with fruity tropical notes, berry sweetness, and subtle earthy undertones. This full-flavored smoke delivers a dessert-like experience that has made it increasingly popular among cannabis connoisseurs, particularly in Southern California markets.

Acaiberry Gelato Strain Growing Information
Acaiberry Gelato is considered a medium to high difficulty strain for cultivation. As a sativa-dominant hybrid, plants grow quite tall (60-80 inches or 5-8 feet) both indoors and outdoors, requiring proper pruning and training techniques such as SCROG (Screen of Green). The strain thrives in warm, humid climates with consistent temperatures. Indoor flowering time is 58-61 days, while outdoor harvest typically occurs in early October. Indoor yields average 1-2 oz/ft² (400 g/m²), while outdoor plants can produce 15-20 oz/plant (550 g/plant). The strain is photoperiod, requiring 12+ hours of darkness to initiate flowering. Plants can be hermaphrodite-prone and finicky, requiring experienced growers. Good ventilation, temperature control, and high-quality lighting are essential for optimal results.
