My Polyploid Diesel-- Double Buds!

So I guess this diesel is a polyploid mutation. I noticed when it was in veg that it was topping itself. Every couple nodes, it would split into two branches without needing to be topped. Now that it's in flower, I've found that nearty every bud site is a double bud. Pretty cool, I think. I've noticed it is a little slow in flower than others, but I don't mind. I'm just hoping that I get double the yield. I've never had one of these mutants before. I've had self-topping plants, but never self-topping plants with double buds. Curious if anyone else here has fully grown out a polyploid mutant and if they have any advice for finishing this freak out. It's looking pretty good so far.

Yes, which leads to odd behaviors like self-topping plants, double and even triple buds, or wildly mutated bud structure. Did you do research or just look up the definition of polyploid? I did some research when I noticed the strangeness and there are all kinds of polyploid mutations. Really bizarre looking stuff. I was hoping someone else had come across this and might share their experiences.
 
Some polyploid variations...

Okay, now I'm getting confused. I'm seeing people refer to it as polyploid or polyploid with fasciation or just fasciation. The way I took it is that the extra chromosomes thing is called polyploidism and the altered bud structure is called fasciation. But the polyploidism is causing the fasciation.
