"I've got Gelato in the air, I've got money everywhere, this bitch blowin up my cell, broke her heart and I don't care" -Young Dolph Gelato. While some strains have a song or two named off of them, few have a full-length album named in its glory. But enough about Young Dolph and his love for Gelato. Lets dive into the strain First impressions: Shit smells delicious. Earthy, but sweet. Like a weed flavored ice cream. Incredible. The toke: Hot damn. I've only smoked gelato out of a small but beautifully efficient bubbler, but the toke was so, so smooth. Similar to its scent, the sweet earthy taste holds for a truly magnificent toke. The high: There is two sides to the gelato high. Firstly, the high is rather lax, but not overpowering. It calms your nerves, gives you peace of mind, and makes you want to bump some slow, driving trap music or let your mind drift away to the complex riffs of some math rock tunes. Gelato also has a dash of euphoria, but rather than overwhelming you with a feel-good euphoric trip, it gives you a confident edge. The result is feeling like your best self, like a real G. Conclusion: This strain makes you feel like Young Dolph. 5/5.

Sour Diesel has given me great joy for many nights. An iconic strain, it is the big-dick baby daddy for many of my other favorite strains (i.e. Headband). Now let’s break down the strain. First impressions: the first time I ever had a good whiff of sour diesel, I immediately understood its namesake. I could smell the sour notes tickle my nose hairs. Nothing too wild about the color or the shape of the bud itself, but god damn the smell, man. The smell. Beautiful. The toke: Man, and I thought it SMELLED distinct, but the taste was great. As a man who enjoys sour taste, this really tickled my fancy. The diesel-y flavored toke made me feel like a big ass lumberjack man drinking some black coffee at 5am getting ready to begin his day of tree-slaying. The high: The high for this strain can be described with one word: Intense. Physically, I feel the high in my eye sockets and jaw. The high takes your mind off of everything but being high. This is not a strain to be productive on. Its powerful. It’s a party strain. It’s a strain that you smoke with the boys then blast some Migos or Young Dolph. A close friend of mine once described the high as “having a beam of light shooting up from the top of your head to the skies above.” And that is exactly how it feels. Conclusion: Sour Diesel is quite the strain. Not for the faint of heart, but I still recommend that everyone who smokes weed to give the strain a try once. Sour Diesel is a cornerstone of the entire marijuana family, and for a good reason. 4/5. Stay groovy my friends.
