For those of you who haven’t been following my thread of "chef’s gorgeous grow room"I have a sativa that I can’t ID and everybody knows it’s 10 times better to know the name of what you’re growing then not. I have very little to go by. My friend grew it outdoors and it hermaphrodited on him. That’s where I got the seeds. The plant got approximately 5 ft tall and very bushy. He didn’t trim or top.
The pics I have here are in my grow room. It’s definitely a sativa and it has a grape smell to it right now. Anybody have any ideas? Any ideas! please list them. These pics are week five flower

Very difficult to decide on a strain identity via a forum. But lets give it a go.
Your biggest clue is the grape smell, but that does not narrow it down as it is the terpene myrcene which is one of the most common terpenes around. But you got credit cause you are a chef, so you have a nose for foods and aromas!!
Next is most strains today are hybrids, especially since you got it from a bud. The bad news is that the seeds were from a hermie. Very inferior genetics and might be worthwhile to consider chucking all the seeds. But nevertheless its looking look like a damn fine plant.
With the amount of trichomes on the leaves only after several weeks of flowering, I could also lean towards one of the “white” strains like white widow, which is also abundant with the myrcene terpene.
One of the most common strains abundant in myrcene is Skunk #1, one of the most popular strains used in breeding. So hopefully that helps. My analysis comes with no warranty or guarantee!! 
@eldindupljak What you think of calling it Chefs Skunk #1?

No idea , i will not give a try 
So many many strains in last few years .
When i see new nursery lists i dont recognize half of the strains .
I have seen some more fancy nurseries they start with genetic reports where you have open data and based on that you can see similar strains and how the people call them , which again is not 100% guaranteed , but if the data is big enough i guess you can call the strain by the same name as the people who report same genetics .
If he is really interested and important for him he can order test the link is below .
I have never done it , i dont know whats the price i guess its pricey .

$295 bucks for 1 test… I’d rather name it if I don’t know what it is 
… Those plants are definitely sativa Dom tho… I say some type of haze lol

There is alot of politrix that surround Phylos Bioscience. Personally after dealing with them and speaking with the owners, reading reports/articles from trusted growers I would not deal with them. There are much smaller businesses offering tests at much more reasonable rates. Although saying that, Phylos Galaxy is one of the most indepth maps of cannabis genetics and really shows the differences in genetics are not as unique as we think. What I love is Durban Poison is one of the most unique strains in their Galaxy.

Cheesequake grow like a sativa all the way and smells like grape indeed. Yes some skunk (sssc skunk is know to be very grapey) also gdp. Grape ape is called that for a reason… It’s a long list but more so a indica thing. Grape crush is one of my faves. Never got any grapey white widdow all citrusy so far
