    'DRO', is short for 'hydro', or, hydroponically-grown pot...

    Much like 'Endo' or 'Indo', means Indoor-grown pot...

    Are people so slow that they have to say "dro" versus "hydro". Bill Cosby has a point!

    Nothin.. it's just 'In The Wind', without the word 'dro'...and that's the name of the song on the radio as well (same as the video)....

    It DOESN'T mean his hair btw... it means what I stated above...Hydroponically-grown weed...
