In 1970 Bill Drake's book The Cultivator's Handbook of Marijuana would change "homegrown" from being what you bought when you couldn't find any Mexican pot to the high-cannabinoid strains which have been developed in the U.S.since then, primarily on the Left Coast. He made U.S. Americans aware for the first time of the importance of separating the males and females to promote increased development of female flowers. According to Jack Herer, in conversation with this reviewer, it was Drake's book which got Herer interested in hemp's industrial applications. Read even just the first skinny little pamphletesque edition and you'll be amazed by how little has actually been added to the lexicon of cannabis cultivation in the nearly-forty years since The Cultivator's Handbook of Marijuana was first printed.
