I've read of people having issues with bricked coir & chips, but I don't remember reading about anyone having issues due to a lack of pretreatment from the loose bagged coir.
I've gotten fungus gnats from bags of loose coco that were left too close to some organic soil mix.

I believe H&G still recommends against the use of airstones on their Cocos A+B nutes (which is meant for DTW)
Call H&G's distributor, Humboldt Wholesale and ask them about the air stones in the res warning. Really, it's quite a funny story. They recommend H&G Aquaflakes for recirc coco.

Res temps are solid at 70 degrees F (canopy kinda shades res)...
Do you think it would be devastating to the plants to remove from this screw-up dwc and re-pot in 2 gallon containers, switching to run-to-waste?
Res temps need to be lower. Period. Water chiller or fully covered res or both.
At 2-3 weeks flower you're not going to get an appreciable root gain by repotting. Just start feeding them dtw.
