ROCK IN A HIGH PLACE
By Chris Simunek
Mick Rock was the dominant photographer on the ’70s glam scene, whose iconic shots of David Bowie, Lou Reed, Queen and Iggy Pop defined the era. He also shot some of this magazine’s most famous covers. Recently, Mick was kind enough to invite us into his home and share a few tales of HIGH TIMES’ misspent youth.
DOUBLE TROUBLE
By Nico Escondido
This year marks not only HIGH TIMES’ 35th anniversary, but also the 22nd Annual Cannabis Cup—another impressive feat that goes back decades! Part II of our series focuses on two major Cup champions: Paradise Seeds and the Green House Seed Company, who have both been pioneers of some of the best breeding the world has ever seen. Be sure to check out what they have in store for the 2009 Cup!
REMEMBERING TOM
Compiled by Steven Hager
Friends, relatives and business associates of Thomas “King” Forçade share their memories of the man who created High Times magazine and then tragically took his own life in 1978 at the age of 33.
THE HISTORY OF HAZE
HT’s UK correspondent, British Hempire, reveals the secret pedigree of that much-revered old-school strain known as Haze, a sativa with a unique flavor and uplifting high. From its humble origins 35 years ago to its genetic presence in many of the world’s award-winning hybrids today, we separate the facts from the myths surrounding this illustrious cannabis variety.
TRICHOME TECHNOLOGIES’ STARTUP GROW GUIDE

THE HIGH TIMES INTERVIEW: OLIVER STONE
By Dan Skye
He’s been Hollywood’s most controversial director for the past 20 years. Now, Oliver Stone—the director of JFK, Nixon, Any Given Sunday, The Doors and many other modern-day classics—sits down for a discussion on movies, war and drugs.
BLACK TUNA: OUT OF THE CAN
By David Bienenstock
After serving 29 years as a nonviolent first-time offender, the most celebrated marijuana smuggler of the ’70s talks for the very first time about bringing in multi-ton shipments of Colombian weed, the joint DEA-FBI investigation that took him down, his decades as a celebrity prisoner, and how he’s putting his life back together by working with the marijuana-legalization movement.
