First of all how big is your space? Then, look only at systems that maximize use of that space (mine is 2'x3', so I got an ebb/flow that is 31' by 18'.

Aero systems are great, but require greater knowledge and have more ways to breakdown (more complex).

My advise: KISS, an ebb/flow or wick system (or a combo like Emily's Garden), or DWC (use a reliable pump or your roots could drown with an outage).

To me the ebb/flow is the best compromise (wick is easiest), the open tray allows for optimal placement of plants (assuming it's not full, in my scrog I use about half my capacity).

Good luck.
