If we're talking about the plastic around the rockwool then I leave it on as doesn't do any harm but does give the roots extra encouragement to grow down to the nute solution rather than out....Mind you I don't think taking it off does any harm either so perhaps it's just a personal choice thing...Once the roots hit the solution the only purpose of the rockwool and clay balls is to provide stabilization for the plant as the water level should sit down below your netting pots anyway....
*Side Note*
Plants are really cranking in the DWC....Just waiting for seedlings (more like miniture plants now branching on branches while only about 15cm high) to show some alternate nodes then throw them to bloom and suffer the long wait....Thank god the clonies will be ready soonish as I'm getting really sick of smokin kiff....
