That looks like a very well grown BDSC Sharron 
? Judging by the closeness of the pics, it looks to have the wider leaf structureā¦ Cheers @splinter7

itās way too close, for sure. lol. if it is bubba, one of the guys who smokes a lot of my bud will tell me. itās his favorite strain, and he can notice it even in crosses.

It does look like the leafs on the bubba are a little darker but structure wise itās pretty close

looking at bubba pics on OG, the flowers cone/stack more on some buds.
the sharon never stacks it seems. maybe with less light it would. it just golfballs to marbles all the way down.
some bubba bud pics look like spears. and, ya, bubba seems to have a bunch of purpling in the leaves which i donāt find so far on the sharon. Iāll have to run it in the winter to see if it purples in the cold, but i havenāt seen anyone show up with purple sharon or any widow for that matter.
Edit: dude got back to me who is growing the bubba. funnily, he said it smelled like peach. hmmm.

I have bubba kush , the original one not a s1 or cross , it grows chunky not spear shaped , Iāve seen the more spear shaped ones and some are killer on there own but bubba kush looks very similar to that pic , smells of coffee chocolate and dank. Non of the pics Iāve seen here of Sharon look like bubba kush to me at all.

Iām smoking some barely-dried-enough sample buds right nowā¦ Smells shift from that tropical fruit perfume, to a weird bad breath meets epoxy, letter/envelope glue type thingā¦ Still smokes soft and semi fruityā¦ Widows do do this, where they, (the buds), have that sweet acid thing when fresh, and turn to a little bit nastier when cut and dryā¦ A little bitter tooā¦ not at all coffee or chocolate thoughā¦ Itās too early to come to any definitive conclusions, but early smoke feels very late 90s-early 2000s type of budā¦ stoney as fuck, but not really tired or anythingā¦ If I was back then, when I was whatever age I was, in whatever year it was, yeah, it would have been impressiveā¦ good enough to keep around at leastā¦ Definitely has that '00-'06 street bud feelā¦ but needs more explorationā¦ And Iām thinking, maybe try giving her more light during flower guysā¦ and slowly turn it down as the buds start stackingā¦ Sheās too fast-finishing for short light cyclesā¦ Sheāll stall out before she really builds upā¦ or at least, thatās what Iām thinkingā¦
Edit: Let me clarify the reason I mentioned late 90s, early 2000s bud- because Sensi was basically the premium brand to go with for dealers back then. Whether it was warranted or not, that was THE brand to use if you were selling the ābestā. And Widow and NL were always considered the strongest two for average joe public, meaning thatās what a lot of people sold, and bought, respectively. So, in the effect being similar to what a lot of dealer weed was back then, it gives to credence, that this could be a Sensi find. Just sayin.

Just took mine down today at f70.
smell has a slight sweet in the background, but fuel/skunky/coffee in the foreground. It has this sharp pungent notes that builds when i take a bigger whiff. The bud purpled up in the light. The most unique aspect is when I pluck the leaves from the bud, it removes a chunk of nug. i had to stop as some point and just left the leaves and trimmed them back to the bud level.
She was run in my production tent as normal with mostly maxibloom, espom salts and kool blooms. So, like early 2k hydro.
The buds are a little too leafy for my preference. And, yield isnāt there either.
@SFO Somewhere in the IC thread, one of the guys that got the cut from Lonestar or who knew Lonestar, said it was possibly a cross of widow into something elseā¦which is what made is special. so, it might not be pure widow, even if we have the real deal.

It might not be pure Widow, but itās definitely Widowy. Who knows what Sensi sold as ww anyway, it could have been more like a rhino or somethingā¦ Youāre getting coffee, huh? Mineās not at all coffee. Iām also not so sure on the yieldsā¦ I think itās all the lightā¦ It needs more than average cause sheās almost auto-like in how easily she turnsā¦ I could be wrong, but I donāt knowā¦ I had one picture I included in a recent post that had the button buds some of you guys are getting, just to show itās the same thing, I just put her out in the middle of summer and she never really reveged, she just keeps buddingā¦ which is where Iām getting the light theory fromā¦ itās like she still flowers even at 16 hrsā¦ and finishes very quicklyā¦ and so needs a little more encouragement to keep chugging alongā¦ Iām going to test it moreā¦

I thought it was coffee upon approaching the plant, but up close itās more like musky or savory with a sweetness in the back. idk. after it dries, it could be pretty different. when the smell concentrates, like when squeezing a bud, itās pungent/acrid.
I ran it with an ACI evo3 bar style. it had a lot of light. It got to 80cpt, but any more fries all plants. the buds are heavy-ish, but they are full of leaves. the calyx:leaf ratio isnāt that high. the blue rhino i took down has similar structure, but better a ratio.
mine didnāt flower at 16 hours. i kept her at that for 2 weeks, then flipped. she was at 24 before then. trichs were still a bit clear at day 69. I think it can go longer, but not sure what will happen to those mini golf balls.
