Hard water calcium build-up. Should be fine unless you want to add filters on your water source.

Correct, just dried out nutrient salts/calcium due to evaporation. Nothing to worry over.

Watering and run off
Using Super soil base mix and watering only with ph 6.6-6.8, run off ranged from 9.4-9.7. Lowering PH to 6.35 , run off ranged from 6.98-7.82. Do I need to lower the ph even further and to what? Watered 1500 with run off of 125-250ml. Is this enough water in 3 gal air pots?
