Bands and strains of weed have one thing in common – they often have crazy names. But is it easy to tell them apart?

Metal band or weed strain

At this year’s Rock On The Range festival in Columbus, Ohio, Whitney Moore teamed up with Heavy Grass to find out the answer to the question we often ask ourselves – is that a band or a weed strain?

With the opportunity of winning some Heavy Grass merch on offer, the good people of Rock On The Range (and Richie from Fire From The Gods) try to separate the mosh from the Mary Jane.

How well did you do?
