Apollo 11
Cannabis Strain by Brothers Grimm
Introduction
Introduction
Apollo 11 from Brothers Grimm stands as one of the most historically significant cannabis cultivars from the late 1990s breeding renaissance. This mostly indica variety flowers in approximately 59 days and comes from the partnership of MrSoul and Sly, who operated Brothers Grimm from roughly 1996 to 2002.
Lineage
Lineage
Apollo 11 was created by crossing Genius—a P75 female selected from Princess (Cinderella 99's mother, a Jack Herer-related Haze hybrid)—with a selected male. The "mostly indica" classification is somewhat contested; many sources describe Apollo 11 as having significant sativa influence through its Princess/P75 heritage. Brothers Grimm's breeding methodology was notably rigorous for the era, setting standards still referenced today.
Terpenes
Terpenes
Apollo 11 is remembered for distinctive sweet, citrus-forward aroma with tropical fruit overtones—pineapple, sweet orange, and floral honey. Terpinolene, limonene, and myrcene likely dominate. Compared to its sibling Cinderella 99, Apollo 11 tends slightly earthier and more grounded.
Growth
Growth
At 59 days flowering, Apollo 11 finishes efficiently. The mostly indica classification suggests compact growth with dense flower formation. Regular seeds are the only format. Historical reports describe vigorous, forgiving plants.
Effects
Effects
Apollo 11 is historically described as producing uplifting, clear-headed effects—energetic enough for daytime use despite indica morphology. This disconnect between structure and effect profile is consistent with its complex lineage.
