Some are probably sick of hearing about this strain now, but here's a smoke report for those who aren't
This is the info from seedfinder.eu
The C’99 is the holy grail of the cannabis strains. As she resembles the high and the taste of an exceptional sweet landrace sativa, which normally takes half a year to flower. But the C99 flowers in 7 - 8 weeks. On top of that the buds are quite sugared.
This new batch is a cross of two exceptional basic pheno types, the Grapefruit and the Pineapple. Both derived from the original Brothers Grimm C99
It matures in 4 weeks from seed, which is much faster than the original C99. (6 - 8 weeks)
One not to miss!
Flowering Time Indoor: 55 - 62 days (~58 days)
Yield / Quantity Indoor: The crop of this strain is great.
General Impression Indoor: is all together extremely good and very recommendable.
Strength / Lasting Effect: The weed is strong and long lasting.
Votings of our users: C99 gets 8.42 of 10 possible Points in the average!
It's 75% Sativa.
I grew 2 of these in coco (hand fed), vegged for about 5 weeks. Flowering was about 55 days.Trichs were mostly amber but I think that's due to my LED panels maturing them quicker.
Topped them twice and supported with netting.
Got about 4 oz per plant (my best yield to date)
What's it like to grow?
A breeze. They're self motivated They respond well to all kinds of training and it's hard to stress them.
I wouldn't count on them being sexually mature in 4 weeks though. Mine took their time.
Stretch?
At least 200% in my case, so at least 3X the size after 3 weeks of stretch.
What's the bud like?
Big solid resinous kholas followed by many small equally sold & resinous nugs. Hell, even the popcorn was solid!
The buds snap like they're pencils.
Visual appeal
Well, I think it looks great. Not nearly as frosty as many seen on this forum, but I'd give it an 8.5/10
This pic makes it look darker. It's actually quite light green.
Smell in flower
Oh boy! I couldn't believe it. I never knew bud could smell like that.
Like the nicest fruity shampoo you ever smelled. My nose picked up pineapple and mango mostly. Absolutely no traditional weed smells at all.
10/10 for smell
Dried smell
I think I started curing too early so the smell from outside is a bit dull.
When you crack the bud open though... it's intoxicating! Pure dank tropical fruit that makes your mouth water. Mostly pineapple but with grapefruit overtones.
10/10 again
No skunkyness, no pine, diesel or anything else. Very clean & fresh.
Dried taste
Taste is more difficult for me to describe. It's like the smell but more like pineapple that's mature and about to ferment.
It doesn't fill the mouth like the most tasty strains I've grown, but it does get the juices flowing
8.5/10 for taste.
The high
Absolutely perfect.
Now, bearning in mind the many amber trichs on these, I think you'd get a very different high from all cloudy. This is based on mostly amber though.
The high is soooo very happy. Warm, slightly light headed, feeling like it's toy day every day.
Walk down the street alone, laughing your head off, too high to care about the stares. Then go home & be transfixed by something as simple as trees blowing in the wind or a spider dangling from the ceiling.
There's a bit of couchlock, maybe to due to amber trichs. Also good for appetite.
10/10 for high. I've been more high/stoned, but never in a nicer way
Good points
Strong growth, stress resistant, eat & drink well, bud is excellent. Not fussy plants at all.
Bad points
None really. They're pretty stretchy and branch out a lot, so can crowd the space if you're not careful.
Would I grow this again?
I am. In both tents!
I can't really have too much of this stuff.
