Greetings anon918

Polyploid or polypoid, both are possible, moderately difficult and of no practical use to Cannabis cultivators.

What is your hypothesis?

Also, there is a bit of confusion. Polyploidy refers to extra chromosomes in the organism's genotype (genetic profile).

Diploid (normal) Cannabis has a chromosome count of 2n = 20 i.e. two (2) sets of chromosomes, one (1) inherited from each parent.

Polyploid specimens have a least three (3) sets of chromosomes.

Sincerely,
Charles.
