HYDROPONICS OUTDOORS
Lol!
Drip to waste is a pretty easy way to avoid clogs that you get in a recirc system from ALGAE!! (and other gunk).
Ebb n flow is fine too.
Either way, you need your res to be lightproof and also have a lid that fits well. And your pump should be kept in a pump bag to keep crap out of the impeller.
If you can get to the parts to clean them with a stiff brush every few days it will be easier- concentrate on the drain and the pump, and if you are using drip emitters, give them a check often as well.
Typical drip-to-waste would be something like coco fibre lightened with perlite, dripping to 10% waste on a timer.
Ebb n flow would be easy using containerized hydroton in a tray that is set up so that you can move the containers and clean debris out regularly.
The greenhouse environment is definitely easier to control, but you will have a fun time with heat, that's for sure...
