What is the Cindy's 99 strain?
Cindy's 99 is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 22.0% THC, known for its euphoric effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
Cindy's 99 is a sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain developed in the late 1990s by breeder Brothers Grimm. The strain was created through a selective breeding program that began with a Jack Herer female pollinated by a Shiva Skunk male, then backcrossed multiple times to stabilize the genetics. The resulting strain represents approximately 85% sativa and 15% indica genetics, though this ratio can vary slightly depending on phenotype expression.
The strain is characterized by its dense, conical buds that are typically lime green with vibrant orange pistils and a generous coating of trichomes. Cindy's 99 gained popularity for its relatively short flowering time compared to other sativa-dominant strains, typically finishing in 7-9 weeks indoors. The plant structure tends to be tall and lanky with long internodal spacing, requiring some training techniques for optimal indoor cultivation.
Cindy's 99 is particularly noted for its distinctive tropical fruit aroma with notes of pineapple, mango, and citrus, complemented by subtle earthy undertones. The strain has been used extensively in breeding programs due to its desirable traits, including potency, flavor profile, and flowering characteristics. Several phenotypes exist within the Cindy's 99 family, with some expressing more pronounced sativa effects while others lean slightly more toward indica characteristics.
