UPDATE - Joey Weed Cinderella 99 F2 @ 5 weeks flower:
Plant looks pretty good, what kind of smells are you getting from it?
I have run more than my share of JW C99 f-2’s, and they have about 5-6 pheno expressions out of 70-80 run so far . That is a very filled out c99 for five weeks, mine look like that at around 50 days of flower.

It smells to me like very sweet tropical fruit, pineapple with like a lemon zest edge to it. G/f says it smells minty. To be clear, when I say 5 weeks flowering I mean 35 days since the first visible clusters of pistils. I reduced light hrs gradually from 18/6 and then about a week of 12/12 before I saw visible flower formation, so if you count 12/12 time, it would be 6 weeks. Either way it is definitely fatter than the Cindys I ran from Joey in 2007/2008 at this point, but so are the other 3. The plant pictured is the shortest of the 4 Cindys, and was the densest and frostiest early on, though the others have more or less caught up; branches were requiring support as early as 3 weeks into flower. The others have smells ranging from fruit punch to grapefruit to one that had been smelling like pink starbursts until a couple weeks ago and now is pretty pineappley.
I have to also assume that a large part of the observed difference between then and now is owing to different methods, conditions, and experience. The 07/08 runs were my first two grows in a smaller space done with 250w MH/HPS, in 2 gallon pots with cheap dirt/perlite and Fox Farms Grow Big/Big Bloom. This current run is like my 10th overall and I'm running two 315w CMH @ 70w/sq ft, in 3.6 gallon pots of living organic soil. Otherwise, these girls seem very similar to what I remember - just thriving on the improved light and soil. There's still a lot of new white pistils coming out so I'd say they will probably go at least 2 more weeks.

The fruit flavored ones are the best overall, the pineapple/ mango mixed type flavors.
I’ve had some with very mild fruit smell, some berrie smelling ones last year, and several what I call mediciney or camphor type smell.
Had one that was about 30% frostier than anything else but it smelled medicine like
I found one a few cycles ago that i may like more than the F-1, grows almost faster than a seed plant even as a cutting. Has an intense fruit smell that’s more sour than other c99, yield might be a little less. I haven’t run it to it’s full potential yet, this time should be better.
Looks better than the new C99 from Bros Grimm.
I popped some of his Northern'99 back in the day and it was fantastic. I found a keeper in 5 seeds but lost it when the law changed here and we had to shut down.
I have 5 seeds of JW's original C99 F2 stock, this thread is making me want to pop them stat!

Thanks, Hemphrey! Cindy certainly is a pretty girl. Here's a couple shots of two of the other three - Cindys #1 and #7 (the last one, #4, was too floppy to even pose for a picture, lol!)

They look legit!
Please give me your opinion on overall resemblance with regard to original effects, smells, tastes and overall growth!?!?
Thank you so much these are on deck post hiatus!

Very nice, looks a ton like the P88 I ran back around 2000ish. Hope the smoke is as nice as the pictures.
