I thought the same thing when I first tried Dwc will I ever get comfortable. Honestly the beginning when the plant is small is the trickiest part it doesn't drink enough to drain the bucket at all. When it gets more established she will drain the bucket and all you'll be doing is topping up with water and adjusting ph.I think it was legit perfect timing....she was just starting to lose the color right as I was upping the nutes for her to feed. Even though it's been over a week....still feels soooooooo weird doing the DWC grow. I can't wait until I am comfortable with it. I even got all the tiny holes covered in the netting pot too. Amazed at the difference a few hours can make. I also think the PH being a little high could have locked out nitrogen. Even though the PH wasnt to too high.
I did notice in your pic that the holes were covered up that's perfect! You'll get the hang of it and when you do you will probably like it more then soil growing I know I do.
