The name says it all: like the Romulans of the science-fiction universe, this strain is known for its strength, intensity and unmistakable character. Pyramid Seeds has feminized and stabilised this classic North American genetic — keeping strain purity, a consistent terpene profile and the characteristic violet-red flower colours that make Romulan one of the most visually exceptional indica strains in the catalogue. **Romulan Pyramid Seeds** — sometimes called **Purple Romulan** for its colouring — is the original feminized version of this Star Trek namesake. ## Violet-red flowers: why Romulan gets its colour The unusual violet and reddish tones come from the activation of **anthocyanins** — colour pigments in the plant that respond to cooler temperatures. In late flowering, night temperatures below 18–20 °C cause the flowers to develop their cosmic shades. This colour development is purely visual — it affects neither THC content nor effect, but it boosts **bag appeal** and makes a Romulan harvest a real showpiece. ## Romulan strain effects The **Romulan effect** is strongly indica-led — powerful, long-lasting and sedating: - **Euphoria** — an elevated mood and cerebral lift at the start - **Deep physical relaxation** — muscles relax completely - **Stress relief** — mental tension and anxiety dissolve - **Calming** — promotes inner calm and serenity - **Evening and night use** — sedating and sleep-promoting at higher doses ## Aroma and terpene profile **Romulan** has a classic North American indica profile: dominant **pine resin** (pinene), sweet accents and spicy notes with a warm, long aftertaste. Dense, resin-rich flowers with an intense, long-lasting aroma. Terpene | Typical impressions | Contribution to the profile **Pinene** | Fresh, needle-like, pine | The main carrier of the North American pine profile — typical of classic Romulan lines **Myrcene** | Earthy, musky, sweet | Supports the sedating body effect — the earthy base of the profile **Caryophyllene** | Spicy, peppery, warm | Gives the profile spicy warmth and depth ## Growing — indoor and outdoor ### Indoor growing Flowering time **43–53 days** under LED (HPS: 50–60 days). Yield: **450 g/m²** standard, up to **750–850 g/1.5 m²** with a 720 W LED. LST and SCROG recommended. For violet-red colouring: lower the night temperature to 16–18 °C in the final flowering week. Good air circulation matters. ### Outdoor growing Harvest in **September** in the northern hemisphere. **750 g – 1 kg** per plant. Cool autumn nights naturally encourage the violet-red colouring — no extra intervention needed. ## Romulan vs Mendocino Purple Kush: a direct comparison | Romulan | Mendocino Purple Kush **Genotype** | 75% indica | 60% indica **THC** | 24% | 20–23% **Colour** | Violet-red | Deep violet **Aroma** | Pine, sweet, spicy | Berries, grape, earthy **Flowering (LED)** | 43–53 days | 53–58 days **Yield (LED)** | 750–850 g/1.5 m² | up to 900 g/1.5 m² **Best for** | Pine indica, violet-red, Star Trek | Fruity Kush profile, intense purple Romulan is also part of **Power Mix American** — 12 feminized seeds from 4 American genetics in one pack. **A Star Trek strain with cosmic colours.** Romulan delivers 24% THC, 75% indica and striking violet-red buds.
