Cinderella 99 is an 85/15 Sativa Dominant Hybrid that was developed by Mr. Soul of Brothers Grimm Seeds in 1996. According to Mr. Soul, the original cannabis plant used to develop the strain was grown from seeds purchased in Amsterdam that were labeled as being Jack Herer seeds. From this bag of seeds there was one female plant that Mr. Soul named “Princess.” This female was later crossed with Shiva Skunk to create the popular cannabis strain we know today as Cinderella 99.
