What is the Lemon Cherry Gelato strain?

Lemon Cherry Gelato is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 33.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and berry and cherry flavor profile.

Lemon Cherry Gelato is a slightly indica-dominant hybrid strain (60% indica/40% sativa) created through crossing Sunset Sherbet X Girl Scout Cookies X another unknown strain. Originally popularized by Backpackboyz, this strain became an almost instant hit across the US in late 2019 after being sold at a Cookies dispensary in Los Angeles, and has since become a household name across the US and Canada. In 2021, the strain won 2nd Place in the Medical Category at the High Times Medical Cup in Michigan. The strain exhibits small buds made up of tightly packed calyxes, each covered in a thick layer of trichomes and dotted with golden pistils, with potential for beautiful purple hues when grown under specific conditions. The buds display a kaleidoscope of colors, featuring rich purples, vibrant greens, and deep oranges, all covered in a frosty layer of trichomes. While the true origin reveals it's actually a bagseed cultivated by Cannatique and strategically renamed to avoid legal conflicts with Runtz brand owners, the strain has established itself as one of the foundational genetics of modern premium cannabis.
