Let me quote from the Gemini protocol specification:

2 Gemini Requests

Gemini requests are a single CRLF-terminated line with the following structure:

<URL><CR><LF>

<URL> is a UTF-8 encoded absolute URL, of maximum length 1024 bytes.
**If the scheme of the URL is not specified, a scheme of gemini:// is
implied.**
(Emphasis mine.)

Please clarify what should it be.
