Dudemann Back story- had a mishap with my original clones. Tried clone collars for the first time and failed. Unfortunately trimmed the crap out of my mothers so I had to take small cuts for this run.. either way they’re rooted and on the up. Week 1 load out directly below scroll past and I have the whole set up listed out.

Dudemann Plant 003 (vigorous pheno) — Week 3 status
Morphology: orthotropic apical dominance, moderate internodal length, strong lateral initiation.
Canopy tissue:
• Early week: interveinal chlorosis + marginal bronzing localized to older fans (classic Mg draw-down with ultra-pure water + K competition).
• Late week: new growth fully re-greened, uniform lamina gloss; no tip burn.
Stems/petioles: anthocyanin pigmentation (genetic; not deficiency).
Rhizosphere: bright white, dense trichoblasts (root hairs), intact apical caps; slight suberization at crown (normal structural maturation).
Verdict: Deficiency arrested; photosynthetic apparatus stabilized. Ready for modest EC/DLI increase in Week 4.
⸻
Plant 001 (compact pheno) — Week 3 status
Morphology: tight internodes, strong cambial thickening (secondary xylem), high stem:height mechanical index.
Canopy tissue: uniformly dark green; only residual lower-leaf freckling from early transition (non-progressing).
Leaf posture: slight adaxial cupping on a few mid leaves (VPD adaptation, not stress).
Rhizosphere: high-density lateral branching; “aeroponic fuzz” root hair carpet; immaculate white.
Verdict: Vigorous and balanced; ~5–7 days behind 003 by genotype, but accelerating into exponential vegetative phase.
• 003: Mg deficiency resolved; upper canopy deep green; strong turgor; no new lesions.
• 001: Continuous healthy expansion; no active deficiencies.
• Roots (both): white, turgid, high hair density; no biofilm; pre-pulse satin sheen confirms correct mist interval.
• System: pH stable around 5.8; EC stable;
Adjustments made during Week 3
• Top nozzles disabled (sputter risk) → bottom perimeter loop only.

Dudemann IRIE MAIDEN (ROMULAN GENETICS) week 4 status.
Week 3 – Photoperiod correction: Discovered light on 24/0. Returned to 18/6 tonight.
-DLI jump: With the same PPFD, going from 18/6 → 24/0 increases DLI by 33%. DLI = PPFD × photoperiod ÷ 1e6.
-Transpiration & demand: More light hours = higher water flux and Mg/ Ca demand → can trigger interveinal chlorosis on older leaves and mild adaxial taco up top.
-Circadian disruption: Mature clones prefer a dark period (phytochrome reset
IM-001 (Compact Pheno)
-Uniform medium-deep green canopy with upright petioles and no chlorosis.
-Slight adaxial cupping on upper fans = normal transpiration control, not drought.
-Tight internodes; strong secondary xylem at the base gives a sturdy stem.
-Roots → bright white with satin sheen; dense lateral branching and glassy tips.
-Mild basal suberization only – excellent oxygen diffusion.
-Overall = healthy, compact, gaining vigor, about a week behind 003 but accelerating.
IM-003 (Vigorous Pheno)
-Lush medium-green foliage; older fans show only faint, non-progressing Mg speckling.
-New growth flawless – no burn or curl.
-Apex shows minor upward cupping from VPD regulation; petioles fully turgid.
-Roots → snow-white, nacreous finish, dense trichoblast carpet, no biofilm.
-Architecture → orthotropic apex with strong lateral initiation and balanced spacing.
-Fully assimilating nutrients; vigorous vertical and lateral expansion underway.

Dudemann Dudemann IRIE MAIDEN (ROMULAN GENETICS) — WEEK 5 STATUS
IM-001 (Compact Pheno – Romulan-Leaning)
Growth tempo still deliberate but steady; internodes tight and symmetrical.
Primary stem thickened further; vascular tissue lignifying nicely.
Lower laterals short but healthy; still supplying photosynthate to the crown.
Canopy color: uniform deep green with waxy sheen, no active chlorosis.
Petioles firm, leaf blades flat—perfect turgor.
Apical meristem elongating but not yet ready for topping.
Plan: Give her one more week of vertical extension before topping; maintain full leaf area for energy production.
IM-003 (Vigorous Pheno – Red Hots / Gorilla Butter Leaning)
Post-top recovery complete; two main leaders stretching evenly.
Lateral branching thickening fast, strong cytokinin response along nodes 3 & 4.
Petioles long and flexible, leaves slightly lighter green = higher metabolic rate.
Minor anthocyanin blush on stems under light — expected trait expression.
Currently under light low-stress training: ties spreading mains horizontally for even canopy.
Plan: Maintain tie-downs, allow new secondary tops to elongate; no new topping this week.

Dudemann *NOTE*
The IM-003 mother developed a localized stem fungal infection (dark necrotic lesion near crown), likely from micro-wound colonization after pruning.
The current 003 clone shows no visible symptoms, will continue to monitor for any delayed vascular restriction or discoloration. Last image..
Week 5 recap-
IM-001 (Compact Pheno — Romulan-Leaning)
Apical suppression from last week’s low-stress bend has fully stabilized. Auxin redistribution resulted in four co-dominant leaders rising at equal height with ideal internodal compression. Leaf laminae exhibit uniform chlorophyll density and high turgor pressure. No leaf-edge torsion or petiole twist observed. Root mass bright white with dense trichoblast proliferation—indicates sustained aerobic rhizosphere and efficient mist absorption kinetics.
IM-003 (Vigorous Pheno — Hybrid Expression)
Four primary leaders maintained after LST, each displaying rapid lignification and phototropic equilibrium under the EVO3 canopy. Secondary axillary shoots emerging at sub-apical nodes are gaining photic exposure but remain subordinate. Stem tissues exhibit excellent vascular conductivity; no recurrence of the necrotic fungal lesion that affected her original mother stock. Canopy density uniform, leaf expansion rate high, and respiration balanced.
