First DWC grow. Tips and opinions welcome (pics)

Hey just transplanted a big clone that was in soil into my dwc bucket.
It had no about 15 inch roots already.
I have a couple of question.
I have the PureBlend starter kit.
I know plant go through some kind of shock after being transplanting and it might not survive.
So how much nutrient should i add and which ones
Will be posting pics soon.

also should i keep the roots inside the net or slide some through?

this is my medium:

Here is a picture the one budding is on soil

Last grow I let my clones go too long and the roots were about the same. I just spiraled them around the bottom and kept the stalk in the middle of the pot and filled up medium around it. I was using hydroton which is heavier than the growstones you're using. Get a stake and carefully put it in the medium to kept anchor up the plant if it starts to fall over.

You want to use flower nutrients, assuming the plant is in flower. Looks like an HPS light going, so im assuming yes.

.8EC would be a good number to go for at this point. Or about half strength whatever they recommend.

Update!
Hey dont really have an EC meter at the momment but I have a ph and ppm meter and have started growing more roots if anybody is interested I'm glad to post pics and maybe eventually move this to the journal section of whatever.
Kept the ph at around 5.8-6.5 and ppm and 200-300 range and new roots look nice and healthy.

Which meter are you using and where did you get it from?
