True to its indica nature, Romulan prefers a warm environment with as little moisture as possible. It is resistant to disease and molds/mildews, but does have a tendency to act up if conditions are not perfect.
It tends to grow into a very bushy plant, with a thick stalk and numerous lanky branches, so proper fertilizers as well as extra organic matter such as silica helps it stay strong and able to support the weight of its flowers.
During its flowering cycle, Romulan gives off a very distinctive aroma that some describe as a musky sweetness. The aroma is noticeable when grown outside and very prominent when grown indoors. Many indoor cultivators recommend a good air filtration system so that the smell isn’t too overpowering. Hints of pine and wood permeate the bud, with and underlying scent of green tea and berries. Overall, Romulan gives off a very unique smell that cannot be ignored.
Romulan is not a very heavy producer, but the buds this is does produce are dense and absolutely gorgeous. When harvested and cured, the buds are deep green with a thick coating of amber colored hair and so many trichomes that each bud looks like it is covered in ice. When properly trimmed, these buds are truly a sight to behold.
