Dolato Seeds

Dolato: Hints of Lavender

Dolato’s flavor and aroma profile are incredibly unique. The aroma provides notes of lavender, which adds to its calming nature. The flavor is earthy, sweet, and piney, giving a nod to old-school cannabis variants. It gets its distinctive flavor and aroma from its parent strains, Gelato #41 and Do-Si-Dos.

This strain’s THC content ranges between 23-26%, making it a potent choice even for daily smokers. It is highly relaxing, putting most users into couch-lock shortly after the buzz kicks in. The strain has a Northern California influence, and because of its growing capacity and delicious flavor, it has gained widespread popularity in a relatively short amount of time.

Growing Tips for Dolato Seeds

Dolato grows to a medium height both indoors and outdoors. The buds are known for their vibrant orange hairs and dark green and red-purple hues. The dense nugs are also covered in white trichomes. Known for its resilience toward fluctuating temperatures. Like many cannabis strains, it performs best in a closely-controlled environment, but because it can endure minor dips and spikes concerning heat and moisture, it serves as a practical choice for inexperienced growers, but requires extra attention to detail in the grow room. Below, we’ve provided effective ways to simplify and streamline the growing process.

Establish consistent conditions

Daytime temperatures of approximately 70-85 degrees Fahrenheit or approximately 21-29 degrees Celsius are ideal for Dolato plants. Humidity levels should fall between 40-50% during the vegetative stage, and drop to 30-40% during the flowering phase. A reduction in moisture helps eliminate the risk of mold while encouraging a more potent terpene profile.

Recommended Training Techniques

Low-stress Training, Topping, and Screen of Green (ScrOG) training techniques are best suited for this particular strain. These techniques require the grower to trim the non-producing parts of the plant while reinforcing the heavier branches and buds with screens or nets so the weight of the buds doesn’t compromise the integrity of the entire plant. You can also utilize the “tie-down” method for this plant to help control growth and manage plant size.

Fine-tune nutrient levels

All cannabis plants benefit from nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (NPK). During vegetative growth, Dolato prefers greater amounts of nitrogen, as it promotes leaf and stem production. However, because nitrogen encourages leaf growth, it’s important to reduce levels during the flowering stage. This will allow your plants to channel their efforts towards resin-rich bud development instead. To lower nitrogen levels, try using a bloom formula or simply dilute your existing feed.

Germinating Your Dolato Seeds

Our straightforward germination guide is an easy-to-understand way for growers of all skill levels to start the growing process. If you have basic items on hand, such as paper towels and water, you can germinate your Dolato seeds like a pro.

Our step-by-step process allows taproots to emerge within 3–7 days, following which your seeds can be transferred to nutrient-rich soil, a hydroponic setup, or another growing medium of your choice. As an added benefit, growers who use our technique can cultivate with confidence, knowing their seeds are fully protected by our germination guarantee.

Yields, Flowering Times, and Harvest

The Dolato strain has a flowering period of approximately 65-75 days, with outdoor harvests typically occurring in mid to late October. Indoor growers will produce up to 550 grams of trichome-rich buds under proper care, while outdoor growers may see yields of up to 900 grams per plant, so long as environmental conditions remain stable.

Dominant Terpenes in Dolato

Dolato’s sweet and earthy flavor and lavender-esque aroma are due, in part, to dominant terpenes caryophyllene, linalool, and limonene. Caryophyllene is a peppery and spicy terpene that can be found in cinnamon and black pepper. Linalool is what gives this strain its floral and lavender scent. Linalool is typically found in several flower species in nature. Limonene is most commonly found in the rinds of citrus fruits like lemons and oranges, and provides a citrus scent and flavor when found in cannabis plants.

Dominant Cannabinoids in Dolato

Dolato’s THC content of 26% makes it incredibly potent even for daily weed fans. Moderate smokers should tread lightly, as this strain has the potential to knock them on their backsides. It is best used after work, during the evening, so it doesn’t interfere with getting things done. It is the ultimate relaxant and can really take the weight off your shoulders and help unwind after a long day at the office. There is also the potential for serious couch-lock after a few small hits of this bud.
