I'mlooking into hydro but to be honest it looks very complex

Every time ive tried they start off great in the veg stage, but fail miserably in the flower stage. but i must admit my heart wasn't realy in it, im an organic grower, i love my soil.
Im thinking of a simple DWC for veg for cuttings though, verry productive

ya. 5 to 20 gallon bucket + aquarium bubbler. use tap water with no nutrients+ ph down/up to bring ph to 6-7 range, only add nutrients as you add new water (you will avoid nute burn). emerald harvest is a good choice. add water to the bucket (reservoir) as the plant drinks. in veg it might be 1 time per week or 2. in flower you may be adding a gallon each day easy depending on the size of everything
its not hard. emerald harvest has a 3 part system (grow, micro, bloom) and provide a chart to follow. just think of it like this
soil has nutrients already in it, it just needs water (soil will last 2 to 4 months if its fresh bag)
deep water culture has water, it just needs nutrients added and water as its depleted

yep, i did my veg stage with a 5 ltr bucket, 2 airstones and mirical grow plant food. just fed them at 3 little scoup fulls for the 5 ltr.
i wored out that if you changed the nute res every time you topped it up with another 5 ltrs of plain water. you can keep nute problems at bay. its wastfull kind of on nutes, but you avoid the build up of nutes in the res

ohh and be sure to use NOT clear bucket/res and tubing. you will get algae. use black or dark blue or something. some folks will say root rot might be an issue but as long as there is constant and good air flow shouldn't be an issue

no photo but its literally this
i recommend round buckets or very strong rectangular containers (otherwise the sides will bow out or leaks and that sucks). use a hole saw or something to cut a 2 to 3 inch hole in the lid that will fit a net pot or a solo cup with some holes scorred in to allow water in/roots out. its all diy
good luck

Internet is full of contradictory info. As you can guess, I'm a novice and will research this.can you provide a link on how it's done. There is so much shite info I don't know what to follow, thank you in advance

not complex, its so stupid easy it hurts, not only that is its cleaner in every aspect, no soil to deal with just roots, no guessing about PH or PPM, less than half the overall time and effort.
