20 is 'not' open from here, but it's been so many years since I had to use ftp that I'm uncertain if it's needed or not.
I see 22 (ssh) is open, so I'd still recommend trying to use the RSYNC uploader. Hey - looks like there's a wiki article on how to do that. That wiki has a lot of stuff if you try to look for howtos there. https://github.com/weewx/weewx/wiki/rsync-setup (big fan of the guy who wrote that page - big fan!)
