Cinderella 99 Seeds from Brothers Grimm

Decent sized buds that aren’t as dense as some strains. Pistils are thick and curly. Resin production is very nice. Plants stretch a bit in veg with longer than average internodal spacing. Buds fill in well, though. Finishes before most in the garden. She is a voracious eater and can take nute level …continued

Very vigorous and great germination rates. Very nice side branching, if topped will grow just as wide as tall. I do recommend topping, tying, and training this plant, because the branches will grow like vines, and are very easy to manipulate. Average node spacing, with a medium to dark green color, …continued

Grow Info:
This plant was built for SCROG’n or otherwise training. It can be topped, I just train. Vegetation time is varied to your screen control. 2 weeks or less is my approach at this time. Branching on clones is very dense, which later equates into more budsites. Going from seed is as squirre …continued

These seeds were bought through CBay last year and were supposedly from Broths Grimm stock.

The seeds were obtained from the GN03 Collection and were Cinderella 99 F2s. Very good germination results: 108 seeds germinated out of 130, around a 50/50 male/female ratio. The plants were grown in soil and on an NFT table. They grew easily, heartily; seemed to grow faster in hydro than in soil (a …continued

This was my first SCROG grow of C99. I had 2 females I kept. The germ rate was 7 of 10. I did a soil grow to produce seed and was able to see what a beautiful plant this is. Classic sativa!! I grew 4 plants in a SCROG Ebb & Flow. The plant has excellent branching, eats up the nutes and is relatively …continued

These were among the first batch of “Commercial”, seeds that I bought back in 2001, and I just got around to doing them myself in 2004. I purchased the seeds from Heaven’s Stairway and they are Brother’s Grimm originals.

I had 7 seeds left, (I bought two packs all together, the others were given to a friend.), and had a 5/7 germ. They were a bit slow to start but soon took off for a very vigorous veg. They were vegged under 80 watts of fluoros for almost 60 days before I put 2 of them into flower. These two were female which I will base this report on.

During flower these took off like mad, with crystals forming within the first 10 days believe it or not. Both of these females were very similar, the only real difference being crystal coverage. I was doing some experimentation with containers so 1 was in a 1 gallon grow bag, the other in a 2.5 gallon garbage container. The 1 gallon girl was topped once in veg and had almost double the crystal coverage, the other had 8-10 tops. Once put into flower both double in height.

Smell during flower was very low, you could only smell them in the flower room, and I didn’t even have anything to mask the smell. Both had the same smell which was tropical fruity, with a bit of rotten fruit smell in there. They love the full dose of Pureblend Pro and Liquid karma nutes, they showed a bit of burn on the leaf tips but that was my fault because I gave them too much one day. The one gallon girl finished in 51 days, the 2.5 was done at day 50.

They were only cured for a week, so I will come back at a later date to give further comment.

Taste: Very low taste IMO, but very pleasant with a floral fruity flavor with a hint of spice and a creamy after taste. The taste was the same for both, though the 1 gallon girl was a bit stronger.

High: Certainly lives up to the hype, almost. The high is very strong and all in the head, 2 or 3 tokes is all that it takes for me. After the 2nd exhale I can actually feel a bit of pressure behind my eyes and a tingling in the face. The high is a bit racy but in a good way, this is good motivational ganja for sure, don’t smoke and expect to go to sleep, its not gonna happen. I have heard many comment on the paranoia factor, while it does give me a slight case of the noids, I love it, of course I’m paranoid, I’m breaking the law. Cindy also gives me slight visuals, with vivid coloring and trails when I smoke more than I should.

Yield: I’ve been a grower for a long time and but I’ve never owned a scale so I can’t compare. Anyway, my friend came over with his and I got just over 2 ounces with the 1 gallon girl, and just over 5 with the 2.5 gallon girl. I’m very impressed with that as I’ve always been told to expect 1oz per gal.

Overall: Overall I would tell everyone looking for a sativa high to grow out C99, I had many ups and downs during my grow because my room never got finished, and these two girls turned out to be stellar. I can’t stress enough how easy they were to grow. My only complaints are the weak stems which need support, and I’d like the taste and smell to be a bit more pronounced. I mentioned that I had 5 C99, well the other three were also flowered, so I have 1 more Cindy female that is about 20-30 days from finishing, and she is the pineapple pheno that I’ve always heard about, so I will come back and report on her later.

Edit: 7/9/04
I have to edit this to tell about the pineapple pheno. This is the one to look for IMO! It yields slightly better than the others, finishes in 50 days, tastes better, smells stronger, and is the most potent out of all the fems that I had. The pineapple smell and flavor are unbelievable, and that is all that anybody asks for. “Where is the pineapple man!” I’m revegging the pineapple right now, and she will remain in my garden for a very long time, a true winner. A 2 hit wonder!!
 
 

Report added by: High on Fire

Out of 7 seeds I ended up with 3 females, the other 4 were males. One tall lanky pheno, and two short and stocky phenos. These plants were grown in 2002, they were the original F1 seeds from the Brothers Grimm. I studied Mr. Soul’s and Sly’s posts regularly on cannabisworld and Mr. Soul …continued
