Gelato

40 hours of darkness before the chop. Lots of purple on the canopy and bright green underneath. Solid, big buds. I can’t believe the results on this. The flavor is intense and exactly what I was looking for. It’s funky and skunky. The genetics in these seeds are top of the line. Yield, taste, high. It’s all there. I can’t wait to pop another of these seeds! UPDATE: DRYING and CURING I attempted something different this round with excellent results. Instead of drying until all stems break with a snap, I only dried until the first (small) stem snapped. The tent was 66F and had a 6” carbon filter exhaust, so it had plenty of airflow and a stable temp with relative humidity at 45%. Because the art of curing is pulling out the last bit of moisture slowly and evenly allowing the compounds in the plant to break down and create a smooth smoke. After 5 days of drying, it went into jars and were burped 2-3 times daily. After 2 weeks of curing, these buds are sticky, gooey and stinky, like nothing I have ever grown before. I feel like my process has improved with this round and will try to repeat it the next time. Happy growing! 2 weeks into cure and these Gelato nugs are dank. Goooey. Skunky. The crystal laced buds break up into purple and green with copper hairs and the taste is smooth, sweet and flavorful. Be sure to check out my other diaries!
