Portland’s Best Cannabis Strains of Summer 2021 | Leafly

Damn it, Portland – you crazy.

This summer, the stoners of Stumptown have the rarest, most potent, and affordable herb in the known universe.

Oregon’s old and loose medical cannabis program spawned one of the world’s first adult-use markets back in 2014. The recreational scene became too robust and farmers grew too much grass. Prices slumped to $ 6 per eighth of an ounce by 2019.

Homeostasis has now returned. Brands like Decibel Farms, PDX Organics, Archive Portland and LTRMN have set the pace for high-key chronicle. Portland has more than 200 pharmacies selling world-class products from Alibi Farms, Fenario Farms, and The Heights, Co.

Why didn’t you book a rocky weekend? The sun comes out for the summer.

After booking, check out this list: Portland’s Best Cannabis Strains of Summer 2021. This selection is sorted by activity and based on strain search traffic, menu prevalence, cup winners and Instagram stars.

Smoke them all and let us know what you think!

Flaming night tree

When the sun goes down, Portland gets heavy – like high-THC knockout strains that others like to copy.

Ice cream cake makes tourists scream in first-class cakes. Fresh this cake season:

Since the days of medicine, Oregon has known cookie genetics almost as well as Cali.

• LOWD unleashes a monster MAC 1; farm wears LOWD
• Meanwhile, Lemonade PDX serves hot, fresh apple fritters from KNF Farms
• For an even more unusual dessert, the growers pop onto living earth with Flowersmith banana, biscuit and OG flavors together in banana-cream truffles; start them Eden cannabis
• The clout is also strong with Fenario Farms’ I95 x G33 x Wilson – a powerful OG / GSC / tropical thing. My goodness!

For bed, Portlanders continue to pick Chocolate Hashberry – grown by the likes of Longshot, at Floyd’s Fine Cannabis.

OK – you have 20 flavors to pack into a summer that may be 90 days long.

You better come to it!
