WoooHoooo!!! My other seeds came in the mail. The plan was to drop all of them at the same time yesterday. Originally, the package should have arrived shortly after Christmas. I patiently waited and it never showed up. Patiently waited...and it still hadn't shown up. Today I got worried and was about to message the breeder to get the tracking #. Starting to worry for sure. Right as I was thinking of doing that...guess who casually says, "oh honey...guess what?! You got this last week and I must have covered it up with the junk mail. I hope it's not important..." Hands it over, gives me a kiss, smiles with a smirk, walks away, and then looks back with another smirk!!! That damn ashwagandha I tell you! MmmMmmMmmmmmmm
So I opened them up and ready for the plunge! I was really hoping to get them all dunked at the same time. Oh well, right?!
I dropped 3 seeds of Queen of Soul (regular) and 1 seed of Space Queen XX (feminized). They are also from Brothers Grimm Seeds, each of which I have HIGH expectations for. Eventually, I would love to grow all their collection and figure out which one(s) I like the best.
I need to go refresh my brain on the forum rules but I'm not sure if I can link to non-sponsor sites. So I'm choosing not to and not risk it. I would encourage you to check out their site for a break down on their projects if you feel like it. These are some old school genetics mixed with some new school too.
I'll leave all the cultivar info from their site below. I failed to include that in the text portion of the intro post. Honestly, I kind of missed a lot of details but whatever. If there are details that people care about, I'm sure they will ask. I'm going to make another post in a few with more details about my current plan. All is up for discussion and if anyone sees anything that would be a cause for concern, please pipe up. No holding back in this thread please. Tell it how it is!
Cinderella 99 was created in 1999 by the “cubing process” MrSoul performed with his outstanding female called Princess.
The dried, cured flowers are rich in terpenes ranging from sweet tropical fruit, to stinky rotten cheese… sometimes all in the same bud – the flavors and aromas are sublime. And of course, there’s the famous C99 high – devastatingly psychoactive, yet clear – you’ll feel like getting creative, playing music, or making art.
FLOWERING TIME:
56-65 days. Pistils should all be withered and the resin heads have all gone cloudy/milky at harvest time.
MORPHOLOGY:
Flowered indoors at 18 inches tall, the finished plant will be approximately 48 inches tall at harvest. C99 can become huge bushes when grown outdoors and pruned properly.
HOW DOES IT SMOKE?
The properly cured bud feels sticky and pliable between your fingers. On the nose, you get a Hawaiian Punch scent but with a funky body odor undertone. When you light it up, that fruity flavor hits your taste buds first, followed by the funky aftertaste. The high is smooth, strong and energetic, however, it can also be paranoia-inducing, depending your mood and setting.
GROWING NOTES:
C99 is a fast flowering plant needing plenty of light and nutrients, silica and extra calcium and magnesium. We grow C99 as multi-headed bushes with stakes for support. They also work well in a SOG or SCROG arrangement.
YIELD:
We harvest 4-8 ounces from an average indoor plant. One-pound yields on outdoor plants are common.
LINEAGE:
Princess x P94.
SPACE QUEEN XX DEBUTS 2022! STAY TUNED! Back in the late 1990’s, MrSoul and dear, departed Vic High (RIP) of BCGA in Canada collaborated by crossing Vic’s Romulan female to our Cinderella 99 male to create the original Space Queen. This strain was then used to great success by dear, departed “Weed Nerd” Subcool of TGA seeds in his breeding as well. As we come to the close of 2021, we’ve decided it was time to release a femme version of this legendary hybrid.
We selected an old-school C99 “Pineapple pheno” female from the original C99 seeds released back in 1999 to be the pollen donor to Vic High’s original Romulan clone. Thus, was created the first feminized Space Queen. All the best Romulan qualities have come together with the sugar and spice of Cinderella 99 in this all-female version. They’re vigorous, super resinous plants, with large, tight colas and a high flower to leaf ratio. A decidedly Romulan structure, yet the smoke is much more energetic in its effects.
FLOWERING TIMES
60-65 days
MORPHOLOGY
Think Evergreen tree shaped Indica dominant with heavy resin production. Purple colors may develop on both leaves and flowers during cold night temperatures.
HOW DOES IT SMOKE?
That first hit is a funky flavor, but very quickly you find the exhale leaves that fruity flavor on your tongue, followed by sandalwood aftertaste. The high is strong, yet gives you an energetic mood.
GROWING NOTES
The Space Queen XX structure lends itself best to growing in the natural Christmas tree shape with a central stake for support. Watch for heavy branches that may also need support. These are dense, big-yielding plants, so support the heavy branches well.
YIELD
We harvest 6-7 ounces of primo buds from a 48-inch-tall plant. Above average to heavy yield.

What a joy it is to behold these sparkling colas finishing their last couple of weeks. Rosetta Stone was created when we pollinated a very special Jack Herer female with an incredible male we discovered when we grew some P75 seeds that MrSoul had stashed away. He looks like a male version of our prized seed mother called Genius – his branching pattern is identical and his floral clusters are dense like female colas.
Expect wonderfully sweet, musky, incense scented plants with notes of jasmine and anise – the classic Jack Herer aromas and flavor as well as the potent, uplifting, cerebral high with an adrenaline rush. It’s Jack Herer, but more consistent, bigger yielding and faster-flowering.FLOWERING TIME:
63-70 days.
MORPHOLOGY:
These are big, vigorous plants with tons of resin on a large main cola and heavily budded branches so be sure to use supports.
HOW DOES IT SMOKE?
Rosetta Stone buds smell like a classy men’s cologne with musk, jasmine and anise notes on the nose – it’s classic Jack Herer. And the high is a sublime classy one too, you feel smoothed out and ready to party or get artistic.
GROWING NOTES:
Let the plants grow multi-headed, or with a single-dominant-cola. Stake the main colas to support them. Their strong branches may need no other staking than that, but her heavy branches may need additional support. SOG and SCROG work well too.
YIELD:
We regularly yield 8 dry ounces from a typical indoor plant. Outdoors, these plants are only limited by the grower’s style.
LINEAGE:
Jack Herer female x P75 male
These are dense, compact Christmas-tree shaped Sativa dominant plants, displaying the typical long, thin leaves.
Queen of Soul flowers for 60-65 days, producing heavy flowers with very exotic, tropical fruit aromas and a spicy incense undertone. Mangos, pineapples, honeydew melons, citrus and patchouli waft through the room while they’re flowering. The high is very energetic and cerebral.
You’re sure to find an outstanding female – with a high yield, delicious flavor, and amazing potency.
FLOWERING TIME:
60-65 days.
MORPHOLOGY:
Dense, Christmas-tree shaped plants with big, heavy colas and branch tips that sparkle with resin so thick the plants look white.
HOW DOES IT SMOKE?
The smoke is sweet, with citrus and tropical fruit notes over spicy incense. The high is intense… a clear, soaring high that cuts through whatever you’ve been smoking.
GROWING NOTES:
We recommend growing Queen of Soul in its natural, single cola shape, supported with a central stake. Support for the branches is not often required, despite the buds’ weight – due to the strong branches.
YIELD:
Indoor yield is 4-8 ounces per plant. Outdoor yield is double that.

Absolutely always welcome dude! You swing by in CA sometime, be sure to hit me up and hopefully I can be a blessing and let you enjoy some of my buds.
Seriously though, whenever I get a chance to visit anywhere near ya, I'd be stoked to have a solid smoke break with you!
