it's simply the time of day a group of San Rafael High School students known as "The Waldos" set as their after-school marijuana meeting time back in 1971.
This according to Steve "Waldo," who says he's willing to take a lie-detector test to prove he and his friends created the number that is now No. 1 in cannabis culture.

Well, I know that every year on 4/20 (April 20) at 4:20 p.m. people all over are supposed to light up a joint. But I do not know the origin or the significance of the 420.

420 (pronounced four-twenty) is a term used in Cannabis culture to describe the use of cannabis, and elements of its associated culture.
Cannabis users gather on April 20 ("4/20" in the United States dating shorthand) every year to celebrate and consume cannabis. 4:20 p.m. (or even a.m.) is also a popular time to consume cannabis. "420 friendly" is seen on advertisements for roommates, indicating that the house mates are tolerant of smoking cannabis.

what others have stated about the Cannibis Culture is true
I know at one point it was rumored to have started as CA criminal code for MJ possession, but I think that has since been disproven, now the most common origin story is that a group simply chose it as an after school meeting time to enjoy and it just spread and is now nationally known.
