First dwc

My first DWC grow plant is 35 days old, it looks small, I grow it on an 18/6 light program. I try to keep the pH between 5.8-6.4. I try to keep the water temperature at 21 degrees. I set my ec level on rez to 1.2. But when I look after 3-4 days, the EC value is still 1.2 EC.

If EC is stable, this is a good signal: it means that there is a balance in the interaction between roots and solution. If also the pH is stable, it means that you found the perfect level your plant needs, so remain on this value when you refill. You should also flush every 15 days (about) and a pause in feeding with 1-2 days of pure water can be a good idea. Use pH+ or pH- as little as possible and only when you see your res basic or acidic for long time. Anyway your girls look precious, I wouldn't change anything ! Have good grow !

It looks fine. 6.3 ph and up is lock out. I aim for 5.8 veg and 6.1 to 6.2 flowering in dwc. They hit a massive growth spurt in stretching. If your ph is fluctuations then feed level might need adjustment. If ph goes up day to day it wants more in the solution. If it goes down day to day the solution is too strong. I would start to incorporate training soon though. Good luck.
