Cannabis culture has steadily emerged from the underground, especially as efforts to reform marijuana legislation amp up. On April 20 (commonly referred to as "4/20"), the cannabis community celebrates marijuana's cultural influence. The phrase originated with a group of California teenagers who designated 4:20 p.m. as a meeting time to search for an abandoned crop of cannabis. The phrase evolved to become a more general code word for smoking marijuana.
