Devil's Gelato
Also known as: Devil's Gelato #41, Devil Gelato
Devil's Gelato Strain Overview
Devil's Gelato is a potent hybrid cannabis strain developed by crossing two well-known dessert-themed varieties: Gelato and Devil's Driver. This strain emerged in the mid-2010s from California's competitive breeding scene, where breeders sought to combine Gelato's exceptional flavor profile with Devil's Driver's intense effects. The strain gained popularity in both medical and recreational markets for its balanced yet powerful experience and distinctive appearance.
The plant typically produces dense, conical buds with a complex color palette ranging from deep forest green to dark purple, often accented by vibrant orange pistils. A thick coating of trichomes gives the flowers a frosty, crystalline appearance that hints at its potency. The strain's name reflects both its genetic heritage and its devilishly strong effects, which some users describe as deceptively smooth given its high THC content.
Devil's Gelato has become particularly noted among connoisseurs for its complex terpene profile and consistent performance. While not as widely available as its parent Gelato, it has developed a dedicated following in legal markets and cannabis competitions. Breeders continue to work with this strain, creating various phenotypes that emphasize different aspects of its genetic heritage.

Devil's Gelato Strain Growing Information
Devil's Gelato is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plant has a flowering time of approximately 8-10 weeks indoors and finishes in late September to early October outdoors. Indoor yields typically range from 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The strain performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments but prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures. Plants tend to stay relatively compact, reaching heights of 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Devil's Gelato responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yields. Growers should monitor humidity levels carefully during flowering to prevent mold, as the dense buds are susceptible to moisture retention. The plant benefits from regular feeding with balanced nutrients and requires adequate support for its heavy colas during late flowering.
