Hi Rick. I have attached a light of each of the sub lengths I took from both the dark sky and my backyard in town. Should be 2 min, 1min & 30sec subs.

And I had an inkling my problems had something to do with the tinkering in DSS before I export it out to Lightroom/ PS. Even in DSS the image generally has quite a green colour cast to it. so I try and move the green slider slightly lower than the red and blue to compensate. As for the luminance side, I rarely if ever touch that.

And I thought i'd read somewhere that bias frames weren't really necessary as the darks contained that info already. thanks for confirming that raymo.

I've also added the DSS image right after stacking. This was my lights and darks taken from dark skies. 1hrs data worth of 2min, 1min and 30 sec subs. Have adjusted the rgb sliders to brighten the image as it was very dark. Green colour cast is quite strong as well even though it didn't show in single subs.
