Low THCHigh THC

Sephora potency is higher THC than average.

Sephora is a modern hybrid strain, though its exact origins remain undocumented. Beyond its derivation from Cali Sunset, the lineage of this plant is incomplete, and breeders have not publicly confirmed the specific cross or the history of its development. Because the origin is thinly documented, there is no verified breeder description or established timeline for its creation.

The chemical profile of this strain is complex and exceptionally diverse. It produces a broad bouquet, with a confirmed dominant presence of limonene, followed by caryophyllene, linalool, myrcene, ocimene, humulene, geraniol, beta-pinene, isopulegol, pinene, camphene, nerolidol, p-cymene, borneol, bisabolol, terpinolene, and caryophyllene-oxide. While these specific compounds are confirmed, the potency of the flower features an estimated THC content of approximately 38% and an estimated CBD content of 0%, placing it firmly in the category of high-potency, THC-dominant varieties.

Users typically report feeling relaxed, happy, and uplifted after consumption. Due to these effects, Sephora is often utilized to manage stress and pain, and it is frequently sought out by those looking for assistance with sleep. It is a productive plant for cultivators, as it produces a high yield within a 63-day flowering window. This strain is of moderate difficulty to grow and performs consistently in both indoor and outdoor environments. There are no offspring recorded in its genetic legacy at this time.
