If one was not concerned about nutrients export than you could for go wc as balling would keep level where they should be.

Most salt mixes are balanced, yes if starting off after doing an unbalanced 2-3 part system you are slightly on a back foot and its hard to give an exact answer to this as every system is different.
What the Hans Werner system will do is in time address that imbalance in conjunction with regular water changes.
remember the imbalance does not come from the lack of minor trace elements you get from 2 or 3 part systems, the elements are a secondary benefit of the TM system, the important part is the NACL part.
Talk to lou give him a call he will give you a more scientific answer to this.
