Electric Lettuce - Montavilla

9/29/2015
Not a first time visit by far. I've been coming here since maybe just after a week after their grand opening. Al the bus is top shelf, no matter what the price is. It's all fire! They carry a lot of bud from Seven Point and Farmer 12, all fire! The main reason I'm writing this update is cause I got one of their 500mg RSO capsules. Now, I'm no light weight. I have severe chronic pain, and an unknown Auto-Immune Disorder that has left me with the bone and joint degradation of an 84 year old at 35. I used to enjoy cannabis both medically and recreationally, until an accident almost 6 years ago where I herniated 7 discs in my back and did other damage, not treatable by surgery; I became unable to get high. I can still medicate, but getting high was no longer a reality. I dab all day long, and smoke and cape flower all in between, just for maintenance medicating. I have tried relentlessly to get high. On 420 I gave it my biggest push, and despite the grams of shatter, dozen plus blunts/preroll cones, and over 6 grams of cannabis total between a few dozen edibles, and I still got nothing. This one cap of RSO, I wasn't sure what to expect, other than just pain relief. After about an hour, I still hadn't felt anything and thought - oh well, at least I'll get the medical benefits. About 15 minutes later I noticed my back wasn't hurting. A great development. 15 minutes after that I had no pain in my body. Minutes after that the lower half of my body was vibrating intensely. It felt so amazing. I will definitely be getting these again, and if you have a high tolerance that unaffected by most meds, I highly recommend these capsules, and for the price you can't go wrong. Thanks Iley, for turning me on to them!

I love the look of this shop. Makes me feel like I'm in a NY skate/bike/record shop, with the walls covered in graffslaps by local street artists. I def wanna get some of my GOBs or INfect slaps on the walls here. The flower selection is bomb and compassionately priced, for the quality. I especially love their high CBD - MC9. I love that they are 24/7, this comes in very handy in late night emergency situations/if you get done with work at 10-11pm. Deanna, and the other Budtenders are all super helpful and knowledgable, and the owners and managers hearts are in it for the right reason. Great shop! Great vibes! Great meds!

Compassion. Compassion. Compassion. One of the most compassionate dispensaries in Portland. Iley and Ken are excellent. Hyper-knowledgeable. Very personable, and attentive. They have the kind of faces that just feel familiar and inviting. You can also tell they love what they do, they love high quality flower, and they love their patients. Some shops have fire at top shelf prices with schwag for their lower level flowers, but here everything looked on par, all of it was top shelf quality, some flower was just more compassionately priced. Though all of their prices, and weigh outs were very compassionate. The flower menu is sorted out by ailments, which is great. I also got a free edible for it being my first time. Will not be my last. And I've already recommended them.

Very small back room, with a small selection. The budtender who was working was nice. Only six kinds of flower. Though the flower was higher quality than I expected. Not much in the way of presentation, and the little there was gave the feeling that they were the kind of shop that's more in it for the profits then the patients. I could be wrong, then again their overview just talks about hours and an atm. Also, I went during Happy Hour and didn't get my Happy Hour deal. The budtender may have just been too stoned to remember it, but I could be wrong. I wasn't aware of it until after I looked at their Leafly account, so my bad, but isn't it the bud tenders job to make patients aware of the various deals? I might return, but being so close to a couple other more compassionate shops, I'm not sure how likely that'll be. I hate leaving bad reviews because maybe there are patients who need this shop, but this neighborhood also has plenty of options.

Fortune Cookies

I think Fortune Cookies just became my new headstock! I usually don't write strain reviews, cause most strains don't stand out to me. I have an unknown auto-immune disorder that has left me with 0-10% cartilage across my entire body, as well as the bone and joint degradation of an 80+ year old human. So, I'm mainly a dabber, but this flower has me singing it's praises. Pungent, pungent, pungent. Beyond dank. Amazing smell and flavor which are consistent. And this is a real motivator. As soon as I exhaled, I was already having ideas for some of the projects I've been working on, and jumped right into them from there.

Love this shop! I have been here a few times, and will keep coming back. Consistently some of the highest CBD flower levels I've seen anywhere. Try the Ringo's Gift at 20% CBD to only % THC or the Swiss Tsu, which is 18% CBD to 2 or 3% THC. (I don't have it in front of me at the moment.) The manager Hannah is great. Super helpful, super friendly, a lot of product knowledge mixed with first hand experience with the products. Very relaxed, not pushy at all, like the kind of car salesman routine you sometimes find elsewhere. (Not naming names.) Also, they have this deal where all your grams (in the same price tiers) get added together weight wise, to get better deals at 1/8, 1/4, 1/2 and Ounce prices. Super compassionate prices all around also, their top shelf buds top out at $10, and bargain buds as low as $6 a gram. Also, a lot of the edibles they stock I have seen in other dispensaries for twice as much, like the Lunch Box Alchemy pretzels for $5 that normally sell for $10-12 elsewhere. If you haven't checked this place out yet, you're doing yourself a huge disservice.

This is the spot! My main shop. Not the easiest to access location, but worth the drive. Staff are incredible, super friendly, knowledgeable, and patients themselves. Compassionate prices and care. They have everything here.

This place looks like an old school apothecary mixed with older New York lounges. (I should know having been a New Yorker for 33 years) as far as service, and examining bud goes, they let you go all out. All of their bud is high quality, no matter which shelf it's on, and they also have a lot of good early morning deals, like $20 eighths. And budtenders who know their stuff. If you haven't checked them out yet, do yourself a favor and get down there. Repeating customer.

This place is great, especially since it's 24/7. The bud tender Hillary, who I see quite often has a lot of knowledge about all product available. Relaxed no rush, no push, compassionate service. Standard pricing. Most of their product is compassionately priced, though most strains are top shelf. But at least here, unlike elsewhere, the top shelf prices match the quality of the flower. Repeat customer.

This is the place! Giant selection (the widest variety of strains I've seen in one counter), knowledgeable staff, and the most hands on experience you can have in a med shop. Not only can you smell the flower, they'll give you a nitrile glove to put on so you can feel the density of the buds your checking out, before purchasing them. I'll definitely be returning, and I've already recommended the place to other friends. Dope experience, and meds that do the job.
