Cinderella 99 Regular – Cult Strain C99 by Brothers Grimm
What is Cinderella 99? Cinderella 99, C99 for short, by Brothers Grimm Seeds is a regular, photoperiod cannabis strain. It goes back to "Princess", a plant grown from a seed that lay in a Jack Herer flower; Princess was crossed with Shiva Skunk and backcrossed several times. The breeder describes it as fast-flowering and very uniform; it gives no figures for THC, flowering time and yield. Aromas of sweet tropical fruit with a funky cheese note and a strong, clear, energetic high are typical. It suits collectors and selectors who work with regular seeds – in the regular seeds category. Available in a pack of 12 seeds.

Genetics & Origin of Cinderella 99
The story of Cinderella 99 is told by breeder MrSoul himself: in 1996 he found a few seeds in a Jack Herer flower from the Amsterdam coffeeshop "Sensi Smile". One of them grew into "Princess", a compact plant with very psychoactive resin and a tropical fruit aroma; her father is unknown. To make Princess available as seed, he crossed her with a Shiva Skunk male and crossed the offspring back to Princess generation after generation – he calls this "cubing". Cinderella 99 emerged via the stages P.50, P.75, P.88 (Cinderella 88) and P.94. After Brothers Grimm closed in 2002, the strain was unavailable until the relaunch in 2016 and attained cult status. The seeds are regular, so they produce male and female plants. Fitting the background is Jack Herer Regular by Sensi Seeds; from the same breeder we also stock Space Queen.
Who Is Cinderella 99 For?
Cinderella 99 is a piece of breeding history in seed form. It suits:
- Collectors of classic genetics with documented provenance
- Selectors who choose their mother plant from a uniform regular line
- Hobby breeders who want to use C99 as a stable parent plant for their own crosses
- Indoor growers who work in SOG or SCROG
- Consumers looking for a clear, energetic high and fruity aromas
If you want only female plants without any selection work, feminised seed is the better choice, and for consumers looking for a calm, body-focused high, the energetic C99 high is less suitable. You can find more classics under Classics and Landraces.
Growing Cinderella 99: Indoor & Outdoor
Indoor Growing
Brothers Grimm describes C99 as a fast-flowering plant but does not state a flowering time in weeks in the shop text; in the shop the strain is rated at 8 to 10 weeks, which is to be understood only as an approximation. It needs plenty of light and nutrients and, according to the breeder, likes additional calcium. Brothers Grimm grows C99 as multi-stemmed bushes, supported by tomato cages or stakes; it works just as well in SOG or SCROG. The seedlings show very little variation in smell, flowering time, potency, yield and growth. As it is regular seed, it is best to germinate more seeds than the number of plants you want to keep and remove male plants in pre-flowering unless pollination is wanted. The breeder does not state figures for height and yield. The basics are in the Growpedia.
Outdoor Growing
C99 became known as an indoor strain; the breeder speaks of the "Holy Grail" of indoor growing. In the shop it is listed for indoors and outdoors, but Brothers Grimm gives no details of its own on harvest time, height or yield per plant outdoors. If you grow it outside, you should choose a sunny, sheltered spot and support the shoots. Only grow where it is legal to do so.
Effect, Aroma & Flavour of Cinderella 99
According to Brothers Grimm, the dried flowers are rich in terpenes; the aromas range from sweet tropical fruit to strongly cheesy notes, sometimes in the same flower. On the nose, the breeder describes a scent like Hawaiian Punch with an idiosyncratic, funky undertone, and in the smoke first fruit, then a funky aftertaste. The manufacturer does not name individual terpenes or a lab terpene profile. It describes the famous C99 high as very psychoactive and at the same time clear, smooth, strong and energetic, with a desire for creative activities, music or art. Depending on mood and setting, according to the breeder, it can also have a paranoid effect. No THC value is stated. So start with small amounts and work your way up; the intensity depends on dose and individual tolerance.
