About This Location

Catalyst on Florence Avenue

The store sits close to the corner of Florence and Main, with the entrance on Florence Avenue and the lot round the back through the alley.

Weed for the People is how we price. Tax is already included, so what you see is what you pay, and a Cat 4 sticker means that product cleared our own pesticide panel, wider than the state requires.

What We Carry

The Florence Avenue floor, one section at a time.

Cannabis Flower

Not ready to commit to an eighth? Florence sells flower from single-gram sizes up through larger weights, so you can start smaller when you're trying a strain for the first time.

Blue Zushimi, Black Mamba, Cereal Milk, and Cherry Zlushie rotate through the Florence wall, with Astronauts, Coastal Sun, and Blem among the cultivators.

Browse the flower menu.

Pre-Rolls

Don't confuse the two kinds of cones on the Florence shelf. Finished pre-rolls are already packed with flower; empty cones are accessories you fill yourself.

Among the finished ones, infused versions add concentrate and are typically more potent than standard pre-rolls. Catalyst's own line, Top Shelf Cultivation, and Coastal Sun cover the range, with a Cat 4 house single at $5, or $4 on the house-brand hookup.

See the pre-roll menu.

Vapes and Cartridges

Cartridges and All-in-Ones sit side by side, and the Cat 4 line makes the difference easy to price. Cat 4 cartridges run $19.50 a gram and All-in-Ones $23, dropping to $15.60 and $18.40 whenever the 20% house-brand hookup is on.

Both formats are part of the Cat 4 line and go through the Cat 4 testing panel. A cartridge needs a battery you already own; an All-in-One arrives with one built in. Plugplay and Blem sit alongside it.

See the vape menu.

Concentrates

Budder, shatter, and crumble describe consistency, not quality. What matters more at the counter is what you're using at home.

A rig and a dab pen aren't interchangeable, so bring up which one you've got before picking a gram. Wvy, Weed For Warriors, and the Catalyst line cover most of the case.

See the concentrate menu.

Edibles

Edibles go in rather than up in smoke. Two numbers on the label matter: what's in one piece, and what's in the whole pack.

State rules cap a serving at 10mg THC and a package at 100mg. Effects can take a couple of hours to show. Drops, Wyld, Punch Edibles, and Froot are stocked on Florence.

See the edibles menu.

Topicals and Tinctures

Balms, lotions, and patches are applied to the skin rather than consumed. Plenty are non-intoxicating, but that varies by product, so the label is worth a look.

Tinctures come as liquid in a dropper bottle, taken under the tongue or stirred into a drink, with markings on the dropper for portioning. Buddies, St. Ides, and Friendly are the names here.

Browse topicals and tinctures.

Buying Cannabis Legally in California

Medical cannabis was legalized in California in 1996. Recreational followed when voters passed Proposition 64, and licensed sales opened in 2018.

At the Florence Avenue counter, that means:

Recreational purchases need valid government-issued photo ID showing 21 or over. Medicinal patients from 18 need a physician's recommendation, and a county-issued MMIC is accepted in its place without being required.
A day allows an ounce of flower, 28.5 grams, and 8 grams of concentrate. Medicinal patients can take up to 8 ounces, and more if the recommendation sets a higher figure.
Recreational purchases carry no residency test, and the limits are the same for visitors as for locals. Medicinal purchases need a recommendation from a physician licensed in California.
Consumption belongs on private property. Not the street, not the sidewalk, not a park, and nothing crosses a state line.
