Cherry Gelato potency: THC and CBD from only five lab tests

In only five tests at state labs, Cherry Gelato flower had a median total THC of 24.11%, and the results ranged from 18.07% to 29.44%.1 CBD was low (only two of the five tests reported CBD, both below 1%, the highest at 0.12%), and only one of the five tests reported individual terpene values, too few for a terpene profile.1

How published THC figures compare

Strain databases disagree. Leafly lists 14% THC (and 1% CBG); AllBud lists 22–26%.2,3 All five of our lab results were above Leafly’s figure, the lowest at 18.07%, and their median, from only five tests, sits inside AllBud’s range.1 We found no seed sold as Cherry Gelato, so there are no breeder figures to compare; Barney’s Farm advertises 30% for Black Cherry Gushers, a seed from the same two parent names.4

Its namesakes have their own published figures: Leafly gives Black Cherry Gelato 22% and Lemon Cherry Gelato 20%, and Weedmaps gives them 25–31% and 19–34%.5,6,7,8 In our data Black Cherry Gelato has a median of 23.98% across 102 tests; Lemon Cherry Gelato is not counted as a strain, and its results appear only as excluded near-miss names.1

Limits of this data

  • The five tests come from two states, Michigan and California, and date from Nov 2022 to Aug 2024; Oregon and Rhode Island results carry no product names and could not be matched.
  • Some labs report higher THC than others, so we publish the median and range rather than maxima. Only two labs tested these samples, and one supplied three of the five.
  • Terpenes: only one of the five tests reported individual terpene values, so no profile is shown. CBD: only two of the five tests reported CBD, both below 1%, the highest at 0.12%.
  • We matched names strictly: 1,034 results under near-miss names, led by Lemon Cherry Gelato labels such as "Lemon Cherry Gelato" (216), are excluded and counted, and duplicate certificates are removed (three here).
