Genetics & Origin of Buttercream Gelato
Buttercream Gelato is Sensi Seeds' interpretation of Gelato. According to the breeder, the original comes from the Californian Bay Area, became famous for its dessert aroma and goes back to two strains from the Girl Scout Cookies family tree. For its own version, Sensi Seeds names three lineages: Durban, a world-famous Sativa, Gelato with its intense high, and Hindu Kush, which stands for impressive yields. The manufacturer does not give an exact cross formula. The ratio is 60% Indica to 40% Sativa; THC and CBD values are missing from the strain description. The seeds are feminised and photoperiod. For comparison, you will find Gelato by Nirvana in our range and, as a regular landrace line, Hindu Kush Regular by Barney's Farm.
Who Is Buttercream Gelato For?
Buttercream Gelato combines dessert genetics with vigorous growth. It suits:
- Beginners who want to spare themselves sex determination by using feminised seeds
- Experienced growers who would like to work with SCROG or supercropping
- Outdoor gardeners in warm, sunny regions with a long summer
- Growers for whom a restrained smell during flowering is important
- Consumers looking for euphoria and physical relaxation at the same time
The strain is less suitable for very low rooms and for cool, short summers because, according to the manufacturer, it can grow fairly tall and flowers for up to 75 days. You can find more Indica-leaning hybrids under Indica strains.
Growing Buttercream Gelato: Indoor & Outdoor
Indoor Growing
Sensi Seeds gives the flowering time as about 55 to 75 days and calls it relatively long. Despite the Indica dominance, the plants can grow fairly tall; at the same time they branch out strongly to the sides. In flower, the main stem and branches carry long, thick colas with plenty of sticky resin. For experienced growers, the manufacturer names SCROG and supercropping as techniques that are said to deliver good results – both also help to keep the height under control. Sensi Seeds does not state a yield figure in g/m² or a height in centimetres. You should support heavily laden branches. There is more on training techniques in the Growpedia.
Outdoor Growing
Outdoors, according to the manufacturer, the plants grow particularly tall and deliver a good yield under the right conditions. Sensi Seeds names the Mediterranean climate as the best: warm, sunny and with a long, reliable summer. The breeder does not give a harvest month or a yield per plant. In cooler locations, a sheltered spot in full sun or a greenhouse is the safer choice. Only grow where it is legal to do so.
Effect, Aroma & Flavour of Buttercream Gelato
During flowering, according to Sensi Seeds, Buttercream Gelato develops a subtle citrus aroma with notes of sandalwood, mint and vanilla. Added to this is a distinct hint of hash that grows stronger towards harvest. Because the smell remains restrained overall, the manufacturer considers the strain well suited when growing is to be inconspicuous. The flavour is full and rich, with a creamy, fruity aftertaste; behind it are the sweet dessert side of Gelato, the earthy notes of Hindu Kush and the fine spice of Durban. The manufacturer does not state a lab terpene profile. The effect begins as a fast-onset, strongly relaxing body stone, accompanied by an uplifting high that can make you talkative and creative. Sensi Seeds does not give a THC value; the intensity depends on dose and tolerance.
