Garden Knome...The ultimate Newbie Question

am as new as they come but I have read quite a bit and I am semi-litterate but i think I have information overload....

GK; I think you have seen more set ups then anyone else on here so, on behaf of all the newbies on here, maybe you could do a sticky giving what you believe to be the order of growing methods as they pertain to [U]YEARLY[U] production. I know enough to know how little I know but, if I'm going to pick a method to learn well as a starting point, I may as well learn a high yeilding one.

IE:
Airoponics
FLM
Drip
Bubbler
Scrog
Sog
ETC

I am talking about indoor growing and what you believe the average guy produces using that method. Let's assume that space and money are no issue (wouldn't that be nice?). I read so much on so many different methods that I have thouroghly confussed my self and I be I'm not the only one.
Thanks.
