I know what you mean.. I have grown from seed twice now - all my pheno hunting was wasted as I got uber paranoid around xmas last year and thrashed all my clones, and two mothers. I am happy with the phenos I have now though.. if you like an indica then Sannie just came out with a much improved yield on the JackBerry F4 - it is a masterpiece, and out of 10 seeds I have found two phenos that are top shelf for sure. A "George Bush" pheno, heavily influenced by DJ Shorts BlueBerry (which as we all know is the king of blueberries), and a "Lemon Diesel" pheno influenced by Sannies Jack.
I've never grown WW, but want to. Sucks about the PM dude.. I know a lot of people have problems with that shit.. in my area its virtually unheard of though
DWC is Recirculating, drain to waste is soil or passive hydro like hempy buckets. - im pretty sure
