Quiz: Can You Pick the Real Strain Name From the Fake?

Brett KonenLast updated July 28, 2020

So, you think you’re a strain savant? That you’ve tried every indica, sativa and hybrid out there, and know them all by heart? Not so fast. There’s a helluvalotta (technical term) strains out there to know, and with their intertwined genetics and mix-and-match names, it’s tough to keep them straight.

To find out if you’re truly a grandmaster strain wizard, take our multiple-choice quiz. For each question, three of the answer options represent real strain names, while a fourth option is an imposter that we invented. (We know, we know – you can easily find the right answers in our strain explorer, but no cheating!) Ready to test your expertise? Tell us how you do – or even make up your own quiz question – in the comments.
