Tho not really an old grow guide it stems from the old Grow Yer Own Stone grow guide by Alexander Sumach.
Not my old book lost in the sands of time but a pic off the 'web.
Anyone familiar with the book will recall the centrefold was an application to the Bureau of Dangerous Drugs in Ottawa to grow your own pot. I filled that out claiming to be a pot researcher and was of course refused. I still have the letter, censored to protect the guilty.
His penmanship it’s incredible.
Seems like he was a total character.
There’s a great website devoted to his books. Can’t remember the name but has a great interview with him on it
As much as I like to trip down memory lane I have other needs/desires, like a small boat to go fishing in, that the memories are enough for me now and lots cheaper.

Good to see that… Hope he did well on the effort put into that book.
Hashish is probably one of my favourite books in my collection… The style, the drawings and the balls to produce something like that when it could of got you hard time in the 70s jail system!
The crazy amount of cookbooks there astounds me… But some are really good and some it’s literally make pasta but put ghee in… Errr I could have done that when I was 15 and learning to cook!
I’ve stopped buying cookbooks now unless it’s to much of a bargain… Like the one above was.
A while ago I made some cakes that no one could taste, see, smell the product in… Didn’t work out to well when some got moved from one table to another and several straight edge friends ended up a bit …
Still they forgave me… But the person who moved the cakes not so much…
What a find on The Botany and Ecology of Cannabis. I’m so stoked for you. I had just sort of figured something like that wouldn’t really pop up so nonchalantly for sale but I seem to have been mistaken. Posts and comments like yours are incredibly refreshing. The artwork and drawings are so cool. Much love
