DRO? lets stop the stupidity

are you the gritty blunt guy or the yuppie dank guy
in my area the gangsta's call anything that is green DRO --its like they cant talk when i bust out the flame organics ,but its weird how smoking differs between the races ....i am a dj and play with all colors of people and have found that even some rich rappers and djs smoke crap because they dont know any better ....whats funny is the more money you got the better weed you smoke ..it aint like that with crack!!!
i get excited showing nugs to the hip hop community it makes me feel special
lol anyways ......when things get dry and i go to the sharks they call everything dro ...
whats the deal ? im glad rappers have started to talk about quality in there raps ,it makes more dealers step up and stop buying crap

I have put together all my sources and feedback on most of the people that call weed dro and basically I've come to a conclusion that dro just basically means sinsemillia :p.

rap controls what's popular with bud. everything on the block i used to go to was "dro" up until you started hearing "kush" all over the radio. now anything that doesnt have seeds is "kush" down there. just like how a few summers ago everything was blueberry. i don't even take it seriously when someone tells me a strain name. people are trying to make money, they're like car salespeople but with bud. people just say what they think you wanna hear.

Dro = hydroponically grown
Kush = a name that's part of some strains.

Mehhhh weird people.

Well actually, it surprised me but I talked to some people that dealt and all that and they said they understood that marijuana could be grown hydroponically but said that hydroponic marijuana wasn't what they mean when they say dro. They claim that it "looks different" "more potent" and "seedless" so I'm just assuming it's sinsemillia bud, bud thats not seeded, allowing for more THC production.

pass tha dro

dro's just another slang for weed....everywhere you go, theres gonna be a different slang. i only use a few words for the ganja, but a few are 'dro, that green shit, nugs, bud'

i hate when people label all weed as kush cause they obviously have no clue what there talking about or they would say what strain it is. The other day a street dealer told me that he was selling g13, i would have laughed uncontrollably but he was a 6'3" black dude in harlem and i didnt feel like dying...."hey man u want a dime of g13" ROFL

g13 lol unreal I don't know if I could control laughing about that. Some of the names are geting outa hand. Most older tokers I know are like wtf when i use a name for the type of herb it is. Orangeman's deffinition of Dro is called Kind Bud here but yet other people woukld be like wtf is kind bud?

I honestly don't believe hydroponic growing methods would make a plant more potent. I mean maybe it will produce bigger buds, of course I mean you'd be using chemicals about 3 times a day constantly going into the roots so I believe you would have bigger buds but not necessarily more potent than soil grown weed.

You know, this reminds me a lot of the whole conversation over using the term "tripping" over being "stoned".

I mean no disrespect to my fellow posters but I cant help but feel those who get the most anal about 'terminology' have a bad case of not enough friends ;)


Down here in Houston (atleast in my circle of friends), dro is anything seedless whereas schwag is the cheaper weed w/ seeds. Basically gentlemen, most of us dont give a fuck. All that I care about is $50 will buy me an O of schwag and $12 - $15 will buy me a gram of dro.

Other then the 'art' of breaking it down (getting all the seeds, stems, and leafs out) I just pack that bowl and smoke it. I couldnt care less about what the technically correct definition is or what the 'slang of the month' is.
