    I am currently doing dwc in veg right now, 1.3ec and 680-700ppm. How much are these numbers supposed to be moving? It has been three days and nothing really changes but roots continue to grow. Is this normal?

    They will not consume much water or minerals when they’re small. Their consumption will increase as they grow bigger.

    Yes depending on what stage of growth and how large your reservoir is. They may not move allot. With that low of ec I’m assuming your pretty early on. And it’s a slow gradual thing. Even with large roots and fully mature plants you may only see a slight shift in PPM. 50-100.
