Ice Princess= C99 x White Widow from Brothers Grimm..
Ice Princess= C99 x White Widow from Brothers Grimm..
hi HP, this is grindhouse's BlockHead IBL.
actually she's pretty stealthy on the smell but if I feel her up a bit I get that old timey sativa piney/hashy aroma with her
ice princess is just a nickname I gave to it.
hammer sorry for any confusion, I didn't know the name was already
spoken for hehe
Oh ya Ice Princess is a well know strain. I have some Ice Princess x g13=P13
Actually... Ice Princess is Princess X White Widow from BG.
C99 is Princess x Skunk
I'm still looking for a cut of princess... but I hear she's in spain.
Stay Safe!
Here is the Princess story from BG
ICE PRINCESS
Created by crossing the mother of Cinderella 99 to a male White Widow from Green House which actually had resinous leaves! This strain will be the resin queen of the new millenium. Ice Princess grows best indoors, producing a compact plant which matures rapidly into a sticky, crystal-covered "Christmas tree". Her flavour and scent combine spices & fruits, but with a skunky undertone. The high is cerebral, but with more "body effect" than Cinderella.
Flowering: 50-60 days
Height: 100 cm.
Yield: 1-2 lbs per 1000W lamp.
Cinderella Story
Comments from MrSoul:
I’ve been seeing a lot of posts from people asking for the “Cinderella Story”, so here it is:
In 1997, I discovered a few seeds in a bud of Jack Herer I bought @ “Sensi Smile” coffeeshop in Amsterdam while there to buy seeds. I didn’t expect much when I grew them, but one of those seeds from the JH bud produced a very special female that I call “Princess”.
Therefore Princess’ mother was a Jack Herer (IF we can believe what Sensi Smile printed on the package) and her father is a totally unidentified mystery plant.
I also got 2 more females (Genius & Cafe’Girl) & several males from those seeds. I used pollen from one of the males on a heavy-yielding, dense, resinous ShivaSkunk (from Sensi Seedbank) female, then grew the resulting seeds to get males to produce pollen to cross Princess with, beginning the cubing process.
The first generation of seeds from Princess were called P.50 because they were 50% Princess. I used males from the P.50 generation to back-cross to Princess to get P.75 and again back-crossed with the P.75 pollen to get P.88 and again with the P.88 pollen to get P.94 which is “Cinderella 99″, a cubed version of Princess.
The name “Cinderella” was chosen because of the parallels between this story and the well-known fairy tale in which Cinderella becomes a Princess despite her humble beginning. It’s also VERY similar to the story of the “Morgan Horse”…go Figure
I ALWAYS see preflowers between the age of 4 and 6 weeks. Node 6 is commonly where they start, so I’d say you’re probably seeing them. The plants that show first are usually males. Look over each plant carefully, using a loupe. If you see a preflower at such an early age, it’ll most likely be male, but be SURE before culling it. If you can’t find a preflower on a plant, while most of the others HAVE shown… it’s most likely a female. Isn’t that uniformity NICE? Cinderella 99 is a STABLE strain. Cinderella 88 was close, but this generation is there.
(Cinderella needs odor control?) I don’t know if it helps you, but the scent is very sweet and fruity. It won’t “fool” anyone who’s familiar with MJ, but the average person might not recognize the scent as pot. They start to smell after 3 weeks of 12/12 and they’re harvested 4 weeks later, so the SHORT flowering cycle helps a bit by lessening the amount of time your garden “stinks”.
Yields are highly dependant on the methods used. Pruning style and number of plants/area make a BIG difference. I get about 2 lbs every 50 days under 2kW. I grow a combination of bushes and single-cola clones (about 12-20 of ‘em) in 2 gallon pots of organic soil, feeding them “teas” of dissolved worm castings, PSG, high phosphorus bat guano and kelp meal. My yields are average at best. Professional growers write me saying they get 2lbs/kW, which I’m sure is true.
The scent given off by Cinderella is NOT the typical “pot stench”…not at all skunky -she’s sweet and fruity. Someone passing by the flowering room MIGHT not recognize the scent as pot and mistake it for tropical flowers. When you rub the resin you can definitely smell it. C-99 is more “psychedelic”… I think that’s what you’re looking for eh? Just be sure to smoke a LITTLE, wait 10 minutes, then think about whether or not you need any more…it’s easy to over-indulge and become paranoid.
Haze is my favourite high. Very “trippy” C-99 is has more of the Haze type of high because the mother (Princess), has that kind of high and each time I back-cross to her the next generation gets a bit more of it. Smoking PURE Princess buds is a bit scary… it’s too “speedy” and paranoia-inducing for most people. But she’s so RESINOUS (see photo) and her flavour is just so delicious and fruity that I knew back-crossing her to her offspring over several generations would create a strain which is actually BETTER than the original mother in terms of a more PLEASING high. It was successful beyond my expectations.
The progression I went through was:
P.50 = Princess/(ShivaSkunk/Princess’Brother)
P.75 = Princess/P.50
Cinderella 88 = Princess/P.75
Cinderella 99 = Princess/Cinderella 88
Each generation exhibited a MAJOR jump in potency: P.50 was rather mellow, P.75 has a well-balanced body/mind high with a citrus flavour, Cinderella 88 is cerebral and paralyzing with a tropical fruit flavour, and Cinderella 99 is “TRIP WEED” with more of the fruity flavour and speedy effect from Princess.
C-99 will be a bigger yielder and faster finisher (than D/T) – which I personally think makes more sense to begin a grow with. If you’re growing under 1000W lamps, you should easily get a pound of C-99 per lamp after a 7 week flowering period. When you have all the weed you need and can take your time waiting for a long-flowering Sativa, THEN start those “extra” beans (included in your order)… I don’t know what the Bros Grimm sent you, but it’s NOT Durban/Thai. I’m still developing it, so they won’t see it for about 6 months.
Thanks for noticing her she IS beautiful! Cafe’Girl is a sister of “Princess” – Princess is the mother of the Cinderella series. Cafe’Girl smells like a combination of ginger, orange and cream… kinda smells like a “Creamsicle” -you know those ice cream bars? She has the highest YIELD of the 3 Sisters (Princess, Genius and Cafe’Girl). Cafe’Girl makes HUGE, DENSE, SPARKLING buds with a lovely high. A really sweet high, in that you never feel paranoid and it continues to “creep up” over the first 15 minutes after you smoke, leaving you feeling warm and at peace with life. Bros Grimm may offer an hybrid of Cafe’Girl when enough testing of her offspring has been completed.

I'm not following you ????? Maybe im reading it wrong ???
c88 x p.75= princess ....Princess x c88 = c99.....So the mother of C99 was c88. I don't usually go back more then 1 when I look for Lineage. It gets way to convoluted to understand especially when you have 4 or more genetics mixed into it.

EditEdit: Yes, you're reading it wrong. Been there.
Who's the "Mother" of C99? I even highlighted it for you.
C99 is Princess X Skunk
That same "Mother" Princess... was also crossed with White Widow... to produce Ice Princess.
Princess X White Widow = Ice Princess
I already went through this years ago.
Stay Safe!
Edit: The cinderella story also quotes it "P.50 = Princess/(ShivaSkunk/Princess’Brother)" bred to originally get males for the start of the prject.
I posted another linage that I found. That one indicates c88 x white widow is ice Princess..
I don't know why he worded it like that. I would have put the actual Mothers name.. The mother of c99 x white widow =Ice princess lol
Anyway thanks for the clarification

Gnome, now thats a gorgeous plant. I'm in my 60's and been growing a long time. I've been saving my seed stash for many years and still have about 30 pure BG Ice Princess seeds. Although I am down to growing in a closset my wife still isn't happy, she hates that I grow. I would love to make some fresh seeds to keep the strain going but right now my hands are tied. For now I must be happy looking at other peoples pictures but dam those pictures of yours are looking so fine. Thanks for posting them. Later,Stash
hey stash, here's the quote from above,
it's not the IP your thinking of,
btw on your wifey,
if you did away with your closet grow I have the utmost confidence she would move to something else you do she hates
I still have a bunch of Pure BG Apollo 13 but they are F3's and F4's and fairly fresh. I planted the last of my BG C-99 seeds thinking I'll get some males and females to make a shit load of seeds. I got 5 famales and no males. I got lazy and just let them grow, very big mistake! These plants were loaded with resin, they looked like they got snowed on. I clipped off the buds and put the plants under 24 on and then 18 on 6 off. If it works out I'll make some S1's. Later,Stash
actually, your Ice Princess does look a lot like the Brothers Grimm IP, or a really frosty Cinderella.
