Hi, I'm sorry if I'm doubling the question but I don't know how to add pictures in the old post. In the preiovus post some people wrote about polyploidy and others on fasciation. To my own internet research the difference seems pretty big in terms of productive and visual quality

Firstly, I would be removing the black wire in pic one before it strangles and kills that branch. Natural polyploidism is nearly impossible in cannabis, being as rare as unicorn shit. Your plant is no duobt affected by fasciation, it won't affect productivity or potency in any great way.

oh sorry if i mislead you thats fasciation you see its visible manifestation of something different about this plant either caused by genetics or environmental conditions. polyploidy is the genetic condition of having more sets of chromosomes than a diploid cannabis plant. although having an extra set of chromosomes can be the cause of any genetic mutation we cant say if it is or not definitely without any testing and fasciation can be caused by environmental conditions as well. i must have had a brain fart because these terms are used nearly interchangable in the cannabis community although not correctly and i made the same mistake :( yeah the physical condition you see there is called fasciation.
