Princess × Jack Herer-influenced stock
Cinderella 99 CBD is a sativa-dominant hybrid developed to retain the uplifting qualities of its legendary predecessor, Cinderella 99, while incorporating a more balanced cannabinoid profile. This iteration aims to provide a creative and energetic experience with moderated psychoactivity.
Appearance
Cinderella 99 CBD typically presents a compact, sativa-leaning plant structure, reminiscent of the original Cinderella 99. It often displays strong apical dominance, forming a prominent central cola, and can develop a dense canopy with training. The leaves are generally medium in width, and mature plants may show emerald green hues, sometimes with slight lime tones late in flowering.
Aroma & Flavor
This strain is characterized by a vibrant aroma and flavor profile, often described as zesty and tropical. Expect prominent notes of pineapple and citrus, frequently accompanied by undertones of pine and a subtle sweetness. Some phenotypes may also present creamy nuances.
Effects
Cinderella 99 CBD is known for promoting a cerebral and energetic experience, often leading to feelings of euphoria and creativity. It is also associated with a sense of calm and improved focus, making it a suitable choice for daytime use. The presence of CBD helps to moderate the intensity of the psychoactive effects.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
While specific lab data varies, Cinderella 99 CBD is recognized for its terpene profile, which includes myrcene, terpinolene, and ocimene. These contribute to its distinctive aroma and effects. The cannabinoid content typically features THC levels between 15-20% and CBD levels below 1%, though breeding efforts aim to create variations with more balanced ratios.
Origins and Lineage
Cinderella 99 CBD is a descendant of the renowned Cinderella 99, originally created by Brothers Grimm. The CBD variant was developed by introducing CBD-rich genetics into the lineage, often through crosses with strains like Cannatonic or Harlequin, followed by backcrossing to preserve the original Cindy's aromatic and growth characteristics. The goal was to maintain its signature scent and uplifting effects while broadening its therapeutic appeal and moderating intoxication.
Cultivation
This strain is noted for its relatively fast flowering time and manageable plant size, making it suitable for growers with limited space. It tends to exhibit strong yields, particularly when trained to produce a dense canopy. The plant's structure is often described as cola-heavy, culminating in a spear-capped apex.
