Originating from Cinderella99, Grapefruit is a feminized cannabis strain with a predominantly sativa composition—70% sativa and 30% indica. This hybrid offers the uplifting, cerebral effects associated with sativas, making it ideal for daytime use and creative activities.

Bred by renowned seed banks in both America and Europe, Grapefruit has become a favorite among sativa enthusiasts for its energetic high and sweet, citrusy aroma. Though its exact lineage remains a mystery, breeders have worked to enhance its stimulating properties and unique flavor profile.

The strain earned 3rd Place in the Outdoor category at Spannabis 2011, a prestigious European cannabis competition. This accolade highlights its resilience and adaptability in outdoor cultivation, with vigorous growth, stable structure, and consistent flower development under natural conditions.
