8ths were on sale so i figured i'd try out Romulan. It's very sleepy, but if you put your high mind to it you'll feel motivated to go do something!
Romulan reviews
Read people’s experiences with the cannabis strain Romulan.
A strong body high, with high couchlock, perfect for pain, anxiety, and insomnia. Makes me feel like someone is massaging my muscles from within my body; sometimes it feels like there is electricity tingling down my limbs. Very effective for my chronic shoulder and neck pain. The pain is transformed into a sensation of heat that is not nearly as bothersome. My favorite effect Romulan has is that it intensifies auditory stimuli and deepens appreciation for music. Music (especially ambient, trance) sounds like it's in HD, or three dimensional. If I'm outside, it somehow makes me hear each sound as a separate "layer," and I can choose which layer to focus on, which then makes the other layers recede into the background. Even subtle, distant sounds become much clearer. It's like I'm locking on to a signal and scanning it. It's extremely pleasant to lie down and listen to music with headphones on and then slowly drift off into a nice satisfying sleep. I sleep more deeply and wake up in less pain. Sometimes I'm a bit lethargic the day after. No other negative side effects apart from a bit of dry mouth and the munchies, which I usually avoid by sleeping shortly after smoking.
Four stars because the strain is not perfect for my need: RLS relief. But it provided me with an enjoyable experience just the same. Bedtime eyes closed, drifting along with wonderful 'visual' fantasies set in some stony music.
I went to TJ's and was all stressed and really bitchy from my PTSD and pain level ,and had been for a couple days .then I got an 1/8 of this stuff. Anyways , I'm home and smoke a couple bowls . Now my mood is way chill and I'm not sooo mellow. If I could stay this mellow all the time. but this is the real world lol...
Although mostly indica, Romulan has nice cerebral effects which counteracted the heavy body couch-lock I usually get with an all indica strain. I like!
After a couple times trying this strain it's become one of my favorites. A definite staple for me as it helps mellow out my anxiety and reduces pain to a decent degree. If given the chance to pick it up I highly suggest it.
Probably the best strain I've had so far for an incredibly pleasurable feeling. I used it to try to get to sleep and help with chronic shoulder pain but the feeling was so intensely great that I ended up staying awake for over an hour while I just laid there and enjoyed the wonderful feelings. Not too surprisingly, it did nothing for my pain since there is virtually no CBD in this strain. The next time I used this, I mixed it with some Cannatonic. Got great stress and pain relief from that combo. Used alone, it hits hard and fast. Super cotton mouth! Best to start out small if you are a low tolerance user.
love it in oil. fave indica oil actually
