Strain
Unlike the others I grew this time, my Sweet Gelato Auto does not have a strong smell. It's a faint, woody, nutty odour that has a sweet edge to it. The flavour builds on this, it is subtle at first but comes through nice and rich with repeated tokes. The sweet taste reminds me of hazelnuts and walnuts and is very smooth. There is a slight lemony undertone I cannot really smell but get as an aftertaste. It's really nice, more like a brownie than ice cream, but still could go on a dessert menu.
It's laid back but satisfying in effects as well. I find it doesn't hit me hard in the head, at least at first, so it is easy to reload for another tasty go. It has more of a physical side to it, very relaxing and calming and not one to send my mind racing. I find I get red eyes quickly from this strain. It's a great evening strain, after dinner is a good time for this one. I wasn't sure I was going to get something to fill the indica slot on my menu from this grow, but this fits the bill perfectly.
Overall the strength is somewhere between medium and strong - I definitely would say the heavy hitters I have done have had more of a kick, but it might partly be the nature of the high, and also a psychological factor from the low key smell and easy smooth vape.
