Some of the cartoons that where on your favorite channel but will never see that light of day on public TV again.

If the nutes are in full solution they would move with the water. Evaporation could be a factor with a large thin mat, making the EC higher than the rez.
I like it! I would think F&D would be very similar to DTW in coco. Only difference is the small amount of excess dry salts are dissolved back into the rez. Normal rez changes would keep EC at proper level
I've always grown giving my plants an almost full dryback, numerous times to a slight wilt. That never damaged the plants.
From my experience MJ likes a very light mix with frequent dry cycles. How is a media going to supply the high oxygen dry cycle if it's always at full capacity of water...

Most of the salt mixers here can probably easily spot the common...
The mix I've been running for the last few years start to finish has been 120-40-180 NPK 90Ca 50Mg 3Fe. I ran 1/4 lines to all the summer crops.
The only real issue was some N clawing on the tomatoes. Once in full fruit I bet they like a bit lower N.
