Dood, just read, seriously. A quick look at the Lucas formula will tell you what you need to know and do.

Cutting edge solutions makes the best nutes for DWC. No build up at all in my experience. 100% organic and extremely affordable.

For a noob to DWC, I recommend Advanced Nutrients, 3-Part, Ph Perfect, with the Hobbyist Grow Bundle @ apx 75% strength.
East to use and almost idiot proof.

You'll also want a water/root treatment like HydroSparkle or Pond-Zyme.

Air - Is like light, it's hard to have too much. The smallest aquarium pump that I use for one plant is rated for a 30-60 Gal tank. Flowering, my girls get (much more) at least 17L/minute per plant, looks like the water is boiling.

Good luck.
