Gelato by Barneys Farm – 28% THC Feminized Weed Strain for High-Yield Harvests

Gelato by Barneys Farm is a premium feminized cannabis strain that delivers euphoric highs, mouthwatering flavors, and massive yields—perfect for growers who want a West Coast legend in their grow room or garden.

Are you tired of weak, inconsistent strains that promise big but deliver mediocrity?

Too many growers waste time and money on unstable genetics that stretch too much, yield little, or collapse under mold pressure. You end up with airy buds, weak potency, and a harvest that doesn’t live up to the hype.

What if your last grow was plagued by poor resin, bland flavor, or disappointing THC?

Every wasted cycle costs you in nutrients, electricity, and patience. You’re left wondering if it’s worth it—especially when the market’s flooded with overpriced, underperforming seeds. The truth? Mediocre genetics are the real bottleneck.

Gelato by Barneys Farm is your upgrade to elite-tier performance and flavor

This isn’t just another hybrid—it’s a 28% THC powerhouse bred from Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies and Blue Sunset Sherbet. With rock-solid genetics, it delivers frosty buds, a creamy-sweet terpene profile, and yields up to 650 g/m² indoors. Flowering in just 65–70 days, it’s built for fast, high-impact results.

Real benefits you’ll experience with Gelato

You’re not just growing a plant—you’re cultivating an experience. With Gelato, you’ll enjoy a smooth, uplifting high that melts stress without locking you to the couch. The flavor is rich and layered, turning every session into a sensory treat. And when harvest time comes, you’ll be trimming dense, violet-tinged buds that glisten like snow-covered peaks.

Whether you’re chasing creativity, relaxation, or just a damn good smoke, Gelato delivers. Plus, its fast turnaround means you’ll be enjoying your stash weeks sooner than with slower strains.

Step-by-step growing guide

1. Germinate seeds at 21–32°C (70–90°F) using the paper towel method or directly in a moist, airy medium.
2. Transplant seedlings into 11-liter pots with well-draining soil or coco; avoid overwatering.
3. Use an 18/6 light cycle during vegetative growth until the plant reaches 30–50 cm (11.81–19.69 in).
4. Switch to 12/12 to trigger flowering; apply bloom boosters like Pro Bloom GHE during peak flowering for denser buds.
5. Monitor trichomes: harvest when mostly milky with some amber for balanced effects.
6. Flush nutrients 7–10 days before harvest; dry at 18–22°C (64–72°F) and 50–60% RH for 7–10 days.
7. Cure buds in jars with Boveda packs for 2–4 weeks to enhance flavor and smoothness.

Personal Experience of Pevgrow’s CEO (Alan)

I grew Gelato in my personal setup under 600W HPS with Bionova nutrients, and damn—this strain impressed me. At just 110 cm (3.61 ft), it produced 620 g/m² of rock-hard, trichome-bombed buds. The aroma filled the room early—sweet berries and creamy vanilla with a hint of skunk. I topped it twice during veg and used LST to spread the canopy, which paid off big time.

The high? Instant euphoria followed by deep calm—perfect for unwinding after a long day or sparking creativity. I’ve tried other Gelato phenotypes, but Barneys’ version is the most consistent. Pro tip: let it go a few extra days if you want more body stone. And don’t skip the cure—this one shines after 3 weeks in the jar.
