The Edge
What is the The Edge strain?
The Edge is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 21.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and citrus and earthy flavor profile.
The Edge is a sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain (75% sativa, 25% indica) developed by Dutch Passion as a tribute to classic Skunk genetics. This strain represents a refined enhancement of old-school Skunk varieties, selected specifically for consistently high THC levels and superior growing characteristics. The Edge won first place at the Spannabis Cannabis Champions Cup 2015 in the Outdoor category, cementing its reputation as a premium cannabis variety.
Physically, The Edge exhibits the classic Skunk structure but with added stretch, featuring longer internodal distances and abundant branching that contributes to its exceptional yields. The plants typically reach heights of up to 1 meter indoors while maintaining robust growth patterns. Buds are dense and resinous, heavily coated with trichomes and characterized by bright orange pistils. The strain displays two distinct phenotypes: a more sativa-dominant expression with vigorous flowering growth and an indica-leaning phenotype that remains more compact. The Edge is known for its forgiving nature and resilience, making it suitable for both novice and experienced growers while performing well under various environmental conditions.
