Gelato #3 is a cannabis strain. The effects people mention most are feeling aroused, talkative and euphoric.
Public lab results give a good picture of its strength: 4 flower samples tested between 2020 and 2023 came in at a median of 20.4% total THC (the middle half ranged from 17% to 22%). CBD is typically negligible (under 0.5%). That is in line with most flower on dispensary shelves. Potency varies by grower and batch, so always check the label.
In lab tests its dominant terpene is myrcene, followed by caryophyllene and limonene. Myrcene is known for earthy, musky notes with a ripe-fruit edge, while caryophyllene adds black pepper and warm spice. Total terpene content measured a median of 1.2%. Consumers most often describe the flavour as pepper, nutty and peach.
Beyond feeling aroused, reviewers also mention feeling relaxed and hungry. Some consumers say they reach for it when dealing with anxiety, arthritis and inflammation. The side effects mentioned most are dry eyes, anxiety and dry mouth. These are personal reports, not medical advice.
