Hi, I have been working on my HPA system for a while now and I need advice on these roots, am I overmisting or undermisting?

They have hair roots but I think the gap between every hair is still big.
I moved from soil to aero after 4 weeks from seed germination.
The cycles I have used have been in this order:
2 seconds 1 minute (no nutes)
2 seconds 2 minute (nutes)
3 seconds 3 minute (nutes)
Initial root structure was only like a string hanging from the top, the aero style structure developed with the first cycle and then hair roots increased with the next cycles.
I run DTW, nutes solution has always been at 5.7-5.8 pH (I dont trust my pH meter, feel free to recommend me a good one) and 220ppm. I really have not noticed a big change on my plants since transplant to aero, I do not know if it is because of the pH meter lying to me (and plants not taking nutrients) or because of the nutes. The nutes I have been using are FoxFarm Grow Big Hydroponic 3-2-6 (feel free to recommend other nutes in case these are no good for aero)
By the way, I'm not working with cannabis, these roots are from butterfly spinach
