ELECTRIC LETTUCE

CULTIVARS

A shock of creative energy from the company that owns Oregon powerhouse Cannabis brands Serra, Farma and Prüf Cultivar, Electric Lettuce does things its own way, and does them right. The shop’s extensive deli-style selection displayed on its flower wall forgoes the common classification system of sativa, indica and hybrid, instead employing its own rules. Customers choose by effect, which Electric Lettuce labels from energetic to relaxed as follows: active, aware, groovy, cosmic, mellow and easy. Sourced from a small number of curated farms, a significant portion of the flower comes from Prüf Cultivar, as well as The Heights and a small stable of other solid producers, such as Deschutes Growery, Ideal Cannabis, 7 Points and Yerba Buena. Look for GMO Cookies and Fatso from The Heights, as well as a 2:1 CBD heavy Astral Works from Prüf - and make sure to ask for some free smells from the helpful, friendly staff. 5/5

EDIBLES & WELLNESS

Aside from flower, one of the huge draws of this Electric Lettuce location is the vast array of edibles and wellness products on display. A huge selection of high-end Serra branded edibles complements products from Leif Goods, Go Fudge Yourself, Mr. Moxey’s, Wyld, SDK and others. The refrigerated section boasts edibles from Laurie + Maryjane, Enjoy shots, and drinks from Legal, Magic Number and Herban Tribe. Electric Lettuce also carries a full lineup of products from Siskyou Sungrown, High Desert Pure, Luminous Botanicals and more. They even carry the new gel capsule line from Luminous! If you want medication without inhalation, this shop has you covered. 5 / 5

CONCENTRATES

This Electric Lettuce location doesn’t have the broadest array of concentrates, but what it does have is well-chosen. A selection of dabbables from respected extractors Bobsled, Echo Electuary, Willamette Valley Alchemy, White Label Extracts, Funk Extracts and Elephant Extracts will keep your torch fire burning. Cartridges from Avitas, Mule Extracts, Willamette Valley Alchemy and Buddies in standard 510 threading and PAX pod format will keep you discrete on the street. 3/5

ENVIRONMENT

5/5 Those of us who came up watching “That 70s Show” will feel right at home at Electric Lettuce. While each shop has its own unique flavor, they are all designed to look like the 1970s basement haven we all wished we had in our houses growing up. Pop culture kitsch and stoner-friendly memorabilia line the shelves and walls, and before long, you feel like taking a seat in one of the midcentury lounge chairs.

Prüf Cultivar ASTRAL WORKS

SOME OF US remember days when it was nearly impossible to find CBD heavy Cannabis with jar appeal and a rich terpene profile. But this dense, frosty little flower from Prüf Cultivar fills that void beautifully. A cross between Harle Tsu and TH1, the Astral Works features a bright, fresh aroma, ripe with terpinolene and limonene top notes layered on a myrcene base. The floral, fruity aroma shifts gears upon combustion, with a smooth draw and a slight dried cherry note on the finish. Shared in a social setting, this flower melted away any anxiety, leading to energized, positive conversation. It makes sense that this flower is classified under ‘easy’ on the Electric Lettuce menu - it won’t take you to the moon, but it’ll help you chill out enough to spend some time gazing at it. $14.40/gram; 5.9% THC, 11% CBD AROMA 5/5 DENSITY 5/5 CURE 5/5 LOOKS 4/5 FLAVOR 3/5 EFFECT 5/5 TOTAL 27/30

Prüf Cultivar ELECTRIC LETTUCE “ROLL YOUR OWN” PRE-GROUND CANNABIS

WE’RE SUCH FANS of this convenient, pre-ground, pre-packaged “Roll Your Own” concept from Electric Lettuce, that we’re surprised that more companies aren’t doing something similar. Comprising a half-ounce of milled B-buds and smalls, this package allows joint rollers to skip the grinding and get right to twisting ‘em up. The strain differs depending on the batch, and pouches are labeled using the shop’s effect-based classifications. Our “Aware” pouch was filled with Divine Lemon (Lemon Jack x Tangie Haze), and “aware” was definitely an accurate description. This beautifully bright, terpy strain offered an intensely positive and uplifting experience, inspiring laughter and flurries of excited conversation in a social setting. Shared in a group setting, it had everyone raving about how exuberant the effects were. $48/14g; 13.4% THC, 0.04% CBD PrufCultivar.com @PrufCultivar AROMA 5/5 FLAVOR 4/5 EFFECT 5/5 PKGNG 4/5 VALUE 5/5 TOTAL 23/25
