Strain Integrity

According to Leafly, ” Romulan is an indica marijuana strain made by crossing North American Indica with White Rhino. Named after the alien Star Trek race, this pine-scented strain is revered for its potent and therapeutic qualities. You can expect Romulan to deliver intense, cerebral effects that eventually give way to sedation and relaxation. Medical marijuana patients choose this strain to help treat symptoms related to muscle spasms and nerve damage. Growers say Romulan produces dense, frosty buds and is a popular choice among growers in the Pacific Northwest. ”

From the OCS website, ” Romulan is out of this world (maybe even out of this galaxy) indica. What if we told you that inside your mind is an entire galaxy waiting to be explored? And that you can explore that galaxy from deep within the comfort of your very own couch? Romulan is an indica strain with potent THC levels ) and a slight pine needle scent. Palmetto is cannabis for people who like cannabis, grown in the heartland of Alberta so you’re always good to go. ”

Note:  One of the more creative LP strain description we can appreciate.  Good job, Palmetto.

A Value Strain?

Romulan by Palmetto (Sundial) packaged on June 21, 2021, cost $22.95 for 3.5 grams with 21.1% THC and a scent of weed with hints of something.  Our test amount was 0.26 gram.

The “high” starts after a very fast three to four minutes inhalation session.  Euphoria rising with increasing intensity over the first 10 minutes signals the approach of this Romulan ship.  As this Romulan ship starts to uncloak, there is anticipatory excitement as blissfulness blossomed slowly.  At the 30 minute mark , the “high” continues to build and modulate with more Indica characteristics emerging like Lethargicness, being more tranquilized.  The Romulan ship has finally arrived.

This Romulan “high” takes almost forever to “Uncloak.”  When it finally happens, it’s a “Meh.” And then, we did a price check and “WOW.”  This Romulan cost $22.95 for 3.5 grams.  For the price, this is decent value cannabis.

Activity pairing is best afternoon and beyond.  Romulan delivered a relaxed chilled euphoric time killer.

Conclusion

Romulan by Palmetto (Sundial)

Romulan by Palmetto (Sundial Growers) is a medium strength Indica hybrid creeper.  A $22.95 for 3.5 grams, however, makes this strain an interesting value proposition.  If the Romulan “high” was only half as good as the Flower’s beauty, we be lying on the floor.  For the money, however, this is a decent strain.

THC:  21.1%

Quality:  7.8

Intensity:  7.7

Duration:  7.8

Total:  7.77

Cost:  $22.95 for 3.5 grams

Would we buy this again?  No.  Palmetto is a mid-tier cannabis brand from Sundial.  While this is decent value, the Grassland Hybrids, Indica and Sativa are even better value cannabis.  Grasslands, Daily Specials and SHREDs are favourite value brands for some of our younger cannabis reviewers.

On an investment note, Sundial $350 million investment into SunStream Bancorp Inc. signals the screaming opportunity in the cannabis space.   As LPs go bankrupt, cannabis assets are being sold for $0.10 to the dollar.  An Ex-Founder of Canopy is also running around doing the same thing.  Greed never gets old.
