Beauty and the Beast is a modern hybrid-indica strain derived from Cinderellas. Cultivated for consistent performance, this variety is suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments and requires a moderate level of grower expertise. With a flowering cycle of approximately 50 days, the plant is noted for providing a high yield, and it serves as the genetic foundation for the notable offspring UBC Chemo.
The terpene profile of this strain is defined primarily by myrcene, followed by caryophyllene, and rounded out by pinene. These compounds combine to establish the aromatic and sensory identity of the plant. Users can expect a nuanced experience dictated by this specific hierarchy of terpenes, which shapes the chemical character of the flower.
In terms of effects, Beauty and the Beast is a THC-dominant cultivar that induces sensations of relaxation, calm, and focus. These properties make it a frequent choice for the management of pain, stress, and sleep difficulties. Through its role in the development of UBC Chemo, the strain has solidified its position within modern breeding programs as a functional hybrid.
