Rainbow Gelato Strain Overview
Rainbow Gelato is a hybrid cannabis strain that represents multiple genetic expressions, with the most prominent being created through crossing Gelato 41 x RS-11, though some variations exist as a three-way cross of Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies, Sunset Sherbet, and OG Kush. The Wizard Trees Genetics version, featuring RS-11 x Gelato genetics, is considered the most sought-after expression of this strain. Rainbow Gelato emerged in the late 2010s and early 2020s during a wave of candy-forward hybrid breeding, combining the dessert-like characteristics of the Gelato family with rainbow-candy terpene signatures. The strain produces dark, dense nugs with characteristic RS-11 pistils and calyx formation, creating a truly mesmerizing visual presentation. Appearance features long grape-shaped minty green nugs with amber undertones, thin orange hairs, and a coating of tiny golden crystal trichomes. This cultivar was bred for both potency and aroma intensity, creating a delightful fusion that captures the best of both parent strains and appeals to both connoisseurs and newcomers who prioritize flavor and high THC content.
