Princess 88 vs. Cinderella 99

Cinderella 88 was available for sale at HS for a short time but once they sold out they were only offering C99. First the Princess x P.88 then Princess x P.94 (referred to as P.97). P.97 was inferior to the P.94 so they went back to the P.94 release for a short time before they sold out and Soul moved to Europe.

C88 was just the precursor to C99.

"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."

Not sure what he's referring to as selected cutting however. He has changed the description since the last time I looked.

Got plenty of the 99's 😉.

Yes that's what I said appart from it being availavle at HS which I didn't remember but I might have mixed the C88 up with the A13 or just plain forgot it. Never had the C88 but the C99/P94. There's been a few changes not only in Soul's make up of Cindy but his descriptions have changed in how it was made. Remember the "brother of Princess"? He seems forgotten now. Alway made me wonder how he (Soul) could change it and still claim everything's the same.

The male was called just that Bro. You'd have thought he might recall that amongst other things. The new brothers grimm is completely fake what a waste of $.

FDM also changed his descriptions and the last batch I got were different from the first I tried.

yea that’s my view on the new BG as well. I still have the old Soul’s quotes from Cannabis World where he posted a lot on the whole cubing thing. I guess that is par for the online seed business these days. I never considered to get the new stuff due to his demeanor and arrogance and also it was kind of a red-flag when he came back with the help of Subcool.

Good to know on the FDM, I never grew his offerings and have been looking at it, not only for the Cindy but some of the other things. Saw that his version of DTHF was made with Thai-tanic and not Thai x Durban but a Thai/Skunk x Durban to the C99. He (FDM) seem like a nice guy though but I get your point with changing descriptions and such, always off putting.

I followed your C99 thread and it seems to me we do agree on some point with our search for Cindy. Did you ever try a version made by OT1? He made a version of C99 that was not an outcross but his filial. The phenotype I always look for was there. A bit lower on the smell/taste side than most C99 but the high was right on. Still kicking myself for not having the ability to care for those female clones and a male that was just the right kind.

Well it’s just internet lore anyways but I think the answer is yes and no. Yes there was a P88 as you could, and I have seen MrSoul also use this terminology when telling his ”cubing of Princess” story. P75 was the one that made Apollo 13 when crossed to Genius (Princess sister) was called P75 as it was - according to MrSoul’s logic and reasoning - 75% of Princess. P75 was the first backcrossed generation (P50 was the outcross to Shiva Skunk) and P88 was the second backcrossed generation, P94 was the third and the cube. Why it is also no is the reason you describe, he started to call it Cinderella 88 at that point and the third backcross or ”cube” as he called it which is just a fancier name for three times. At least that is how the story used to go. There’s been a few different versions of different steps, even from MrSoul, so who really knows right…

must have been nice to try flowers from Princess but it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, just like some don’t like C99 and some like it. Did C99 match up to the mothers flavor in your opinion?

this is how it was always described to me as well.

i think the princess I smoked was p75 or whatever. Idk it was a long time ago

The last pic you posted looks like my lower smelling #1 nearly exactly. Is that from a previous grow? The first stuff I ran from FDM had a lot of variation. The more recent seemed different.

I ran Oldtimers version of Haze via ace but never anything else. Took a very long time compared to the 2 different versions of OHaze I am familiar with.

Yea it’s from an old grow in 2013/2014. It wasn’t a commercial release as I got these via a friend, one of the best versions I tried but I only grew 3 plants from it as that was the number of seeds that would germinate for me, all three were spitting images of each other almost just small differences. The pictures are all of one of the two females, have to dig some in my archives (old computers) to see if I can find some of the second female, she was just a tad lankier but had a very nice tropical fruit salad smell more like Apollo 11 and she also had a bit warmer and happier high, which I often associate more with the Genius side but they were definitely similar enough for me to categorize them in the same expression folder.

Did you run the C99 or the C88 from FDM? I would guess, though I sure don’t know, that his versions have been more inbred the later they are? When did you first run his stock? Asking as I am interested to see what it is and have been close to ordering from them. I never ran any OT haze but I did run a few Smile which I suspect incorporates the C99 but I could be wrong. I thought C99 was much better than Smile but this is going by memory more than 10 years since the Smile.

How did you rate his haze compared to the others?
