yea and add your nutes accordingly until you reach the desired levels of ppm ph for where you are in your plants life cycle

you should top up your res daily with ph'd water. once you have added back the same amount of water as your res holds its time to change. can you post some pictures of your setup? I run something similar but home made.

If you use a weekly feeding schedule or something I think it makes sense to let it run down as much as you can if things stay within range.

A lot also has to do with what people are feeding them. It makes sense to me that if your planning on your rez life only being a week or so it makes sense to leave it alone if you're going to dump it. Something like the lucas formula topping off and balancing ppm is real easy and cheaper.
