Am I doing this DWC checking and adjusting right......?

Looks like about a 1.5 point swing ish. Over about 9 hours or so. I can work with that. But what’s proper. Set PH lower to start so it’ll balance more stable or??

You definitely can do that. Eventually your reservoir should stabilize. Once a plant is in the bucket it’ll make it even easier to stabilize as well.
 
Seedlings still have that abnormal color still . They’re growing so I’m gonna let it ride . Think it’ll grow out of whatever the problem is .

Your swing will get better when you have established roots in the water.

Man I have a predicament I’ve got 3” netpots..... and I Sprouted in a either a 1.5” or 2” net pot with coco..... lol I was going to use hydroton and just put my smaller net pot in the bigger one but there’s not enough play to get hydroton in there.... maybe just use perlite you think? Or maybe a layer of hydroton on the bottom and perlite on the sides?image.jpg

It’s green with a little bit of yellow . Sure it’s from the rw being wet . I let it dry out a little yesterday and domed it again this morning.

If your rh is above 30%, I'd take the dome off, especially if you think they are wet. You don't want them to damp off.

I’m going into DWC with 3” net pots how would you go about it?

Just tip that netcup over and squeeze it gently til it pops out. Plant it right in the new cup, put it in a tray with enough water to cover the surface, and wait for the root to pop the new cup.

Salts. That’s the only reason

Oh and because I defoliate too.

Running water to rinse salts is understandable, but that end "flush"... Just never made sense. That kind of flushing is actually a bad thing, as it increases the stored nitrates in the plant. Just wondering lol.

Defoliate, defoliate, defoliate lol.
