Romulan Sativa
Also known as: Romulan Sativa Phenotype
Romulan Sativa Strain Overview
Romulan Sativa is a rare sativa-dominant phenotype of the classic Romulan strain, which is typically known as a potent indica. This variant emerged from selective breeding practices that emphasized the sativa characteristics present in the original Romulan genetic lineage. The strain's name references the fictional alien species from Star Trek, though the exact origin of this naming convention remains unclear. Unlike its more common indica counterpart, Romulan Sativa maintains the distinctive resin production and cerebral effects while expressing more elongated bud structure and sativa growth patterns.
Visually, Romulan Sativa plants develop elongated, spear-shaped buds with a lighter green coloration compared to the indica version. The flowers are typically less dense and more airy, characteristic of sativa varieties, but still maintain a generous coating of trichomes that gives them a frosty appearance. The buds often display vibrant orange pistils that contrast against the pale green background. The aroma profile differs slightly from the indica version, with more pronounced citrus and pine notes alongside the characteristic earthy undertones.
This strain is particularly noted among cannabis connoisseurs for its balanced effects that combine cerebral stimulation with physical relaxation. While less common than traditional Romulan, this sativa expression has gained a following among users seeking the distinctive Romulan flavor profile with more energizing effects. The rarity of this phenotype means it is primarily available through specialized breeders and seed banks rather than mainstream dispensaries.

Romulan Sativa Strain Growing Information
Romulan Sativa presents moderate cultivation difficulty due to its specific phenotype requirements. Flowering time typically ranges from 9-11 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late October in northern hemisphere climates. Plants can reach heights of 5-7 feet outdoors and 3-5 feet indoors with proper training. This strain prefers warm, Mediterranean-like climates when grown outdoors and responds well to both soil and hydroponic systems. Indoor growers should provide ample vertical space and consider training techniques like topping or SCROG to manage height. Yield is moderate, producing approximately 14-18 ounces per square meter indoors. The plants are moderately resistant to common molds and pests but require good air circulation due to their dense foliage.
