Description
During our new plant trials in 2018 we ran many popular, big-name plants and one of our two favorites was Gelato 33. We were extremely impressed with it, but by the time we actually secured Gelato 33 I’m sure everyone and their uncle already had it. That’s not too unusual for us though because we usually let plants come to us, rather than seeking them out. To us, when everybody is growing a specific cannabis variety that’s a good thing because it usually means that plant has stood the test of time… Cannabis cultivars that folks gladly grow for years on end is really the only kind of plant we want to work with anyways! Gelato 33 has undoubtedly proven its name with multiple world-class breeders using her in their crosses and is now known world-wide.
‘Father’/mother: White IX, the female pollen-donor of this cross, was bred by Cannarado many years ago. We found this phenotype from seed 4 or 5 years ago ourselves and she’s been a garden stand-out ever since. The fact that we chose her for our very first feminized seed release says a lot! During our very first run though we weren’t quite sure about her because she seemed to grow kinda slow during the vegetative cycle and in flower too, but during weeks 6 through 9 she really put on quite the performance, more than compensating for the shortcomings we thought she might’ve had! We were quick to judge and she showed us just how quick she can stack fat buds on those stocky branches of hers. The flowers will continue to swell until they topple over, paying no mind to the support stakes tied to them. The leaves generally remain dark green and canoe-upwards because of the resin-rails that encrust the edges of the leaves. The flowers are dense and heavy. And what about the aroma? She has a loud, deep, dank, pine-skunk, acetone nose… the one that so many folks are fond of these days. The thing that is so special about her though is that unlike many OGs or Cookie varietals that grow tall and lanky, this lady keeps to herself, staying on the shorter, more compact side throughout her life, which we love. Her many highly desirable traits really shine through in this feminized cross.
Sweet Mother of God is a transcendent name for the harmonizing of two timeless cultivars. The plants range from somewhat stocky and fat to extremely lanky and tall with long internodes. A quick sniff, touch, and gander at these buds… gasp! The buds reek so loud of Lemon Head candy with burnt rubber and tropical fruits that folks usually skip the typical exclamatory phrases like, “Holy crap”, “Sweet Jesus” and “Oh my God” and go straight to the mother of all religious phrases itself: “Sweet Mother of God…” We could tell you about how fantastic these plants are all day long and we could even show you photos, but none that would really give justice to the complex terpene profiles these plants create, or just how sticky the flowers are during peak flower.
