Is most Gelato 45 below 20% THC?

Yes: most Gelato 45 flower tests were below 20% total THC, because 43% were at 20% or higher, about 4 in 10; 5.7% were at 25% or higher, and no test reached 30%.1

Does Gelato 45 usually meet its listed THC?

Mostly no: the better-fitting of the two published THC ranges held only 5.7% of Gelato 45 tests, and the lone single-number listing did not sit above the 19.65% lab median.1 Flower tests met or exceeded Leafly's 19% figure in 64% of cases, or about 6 in 10.1,3

The range claims both describe a small slice of labs: 23–26% from AllBud included 5.7% of tests, and 25–27% from Weedmaps also included 5.7%.1,4,5 These figures are not batch-specific; for a particular jar, use that package's certificate of analysis.

How consistent is Gelato 45 THC from batch to batch?

Among qualifying strains, more consistent than most, despite a bottom-third THC rank: Gelato 45's central batch-to-batch band spans 3.14 points from 18.12% to 21.26%, the 3rd-narrowest spread among 52 comparable strains, while its 19.65% median ranks 36th of 52 between Girl Scout Cookies (19.72%) and Jack Herer (19.59%).1

The 25% cutoff keeps it low in the table: 5.7% of tests met or exceeded 25%, good for 40th.1

Is Gelato 45 mostly tested as flower?

Yes: Gelato 45 was mostly flower under the exact name, with flower making up 82% of 66 lab results; the rest was 11% shake and trim, 6.1% concentrates and 1.5% other or unrecorded, and only flower feeds our strain figures.1

Longer names accounted for 8 additional lab results containing Gelato 45, or 11% of the broader name set; the leading examples were “London Pound Cake x Gelato 45” (4), “SWEET GELATO 45-FLOWER” (2) and “Gelato 45\/Strawberry Banana” (1).1 Those are excluded because extra words and cross marks can indicate a different item; see how we separate strain names.

What this data cannot tell you

  • For Gelato 45, the lead-terpene call is left blank because the count is 10 tests reporting at least five individual terpenes, below the required 20 such tests.1
  • We do not compare Gelato 45 terpene mixes because individual terpene values are reported by only 10 tests, and the cutoff for that profile analysis is 30.1
  • We leave out lab-to-lab differences for Gelato 45 because the data do not have 3 labs with 20 or more tests each.1
  • We omit the THC and total-terpene pairing for Gelato 45; the dataset does not reach 60 tests with both measures reported.1
  • For Gelato 45, we leave out the year trend because no qualifying year pair is both at least two years apart and at 20 or more tests per year.1
  • The lab set covers Gelato 45 flower submitted in 4 states during 2019–2023; a package-level certificate of analysis is the document for judging an individual jar.1
  • These chemistry measurements do not say how this strain will feel to any individual consumer.
