About Cinderella 99
Cinderella 99 was bred by the Brothers Grimm (Soul and Cindy) and became one of the most celebrated sativa-dominant hybrids of its era. The story goes that Soul found a single seed in a bag of 'Princess' (which was itself a P75 hybrid) and grew it out, discovering an incredible pineapple-scented plant. He then backcrossed it to stabilize the genetics. C99 combined the soaring cerebral high of a pure sativa with a surprisingly short flowering time (50-55 days) — a breakthrough for sativa lovers in cold climates. Its strong pineapple and citrus aroma made it unmistakable.
