I wanna try my 1st hydro grow. So what is the easiest way to start? Would a drip system like a waterfarm or just a simple DWC system?

A drain to waste (drip) coco or rockwool setup would probably be you're easiest way to start off with the best results.

Simple drip systems have issues, like

how much to drip and when

nutes can quickly clog the drippers

most media can be overwetted= soaked, causing root rot and death

Sounds like I am anti-drip, but no, I have solved it's issues; gearing up for HH 2.0

Check of my thread Drain to waste 320 gph pump. Now it was my first go-round with HydroHalo Drip Rings, which I used to shower the plants instead of dripping. Showering provides way more coverage to the root system just below the surface.

Straight up RDWC! You need a pump, air stones, air pump and manifold, feed and return lines. Boom. Check out the under current system by current culture and make a DIY.
