Nutrients should be available to the plant at all times in DWC.
I suggest hand feeding from the top until the roots reach the reservoir.

Your using big bud, but your plant has no buds on it?
Your plant is fine. But it will not grow much beyond this point unless you feed it.
Read the instructions on the bottles. Start with 1/4 strength. Your ec should be .5 or so not including your starting water ec.
Your nutrient solution should always have nutes in it doing dwc.

So should I still do top feeding or just add it to the water

I can tell that most of your net pot is submerged in the water res......that being the case you probably won't need to top feed.
Once a substantial amount of roots are hanging down you can lower the height of your water level to just below the net pot.
And yes you need to add nutrients to your reservoir.
So I am ok for right now then?? I just change the water and added my nutrients for the week and I’ll keep you posted and thanks for the help and hope to have you for the rest of my grow my guy

I appreciate the vote of confidence, but I haven't grown in DWC in 15 years. I only know enough to be a little helpful occasionally.

Yeah do that but start with 1/4 of that and see what you get.
Also water temp? 80f? Water should be under 70f.

I've seen these leveling tubes but my concern with those is light getting to the water in the tube then creating algae? does this happen?

Over time yes we take and clean after every grow and run a high chlorine rince after every grow to kill anything unwanted bacteria that may have growed 14 min of that then drain and rinse and start all over again...
