what style of hydro to use? (I have experience with DWC)

okay so I currently grow in my garage and being as its coming up on summertime, its goona be hot as a mofo in there considering theres a 1000w keeping the temps up, SO i decided to move my grow to the basement, and while I was figuring that out I noticed there's plenty of room on the circuits to expand the grow a little :D. the problem is, my current recirculating DWC setup is a little jankety (although it works like a BEAST) and I'm not too sure it would take being moved over there too kindly , so that's why I'm looking for a new hydro system to start using. If I could stick with some sort of dwc setup I'd love that, but I dont really want to bother building one myself, plus changing the nutrients on that many buckets once a week (I'm looking to grow 40-50 plants) would be rediculous, I cant seem to find any sort of prepackaged systems of the sort, and I don't really want to move to ebb and flow because from the sounds of it, dwc and aero would very quickly outpace any ebb and flow offering. so I started looking at aero systems, but they usually looked woefully inadequate to grow even relatively small trees.

so to sum it up basically, I would love to stick with DWC, but I'd need help with either designing a new setup to facilitate easier nute flushes, some sort of a system I could buy myself, or an aero setup that can handle reasonably large trees.
 
Aeroponics or a flood system would work mint for ya. Both of them are a one res system with a pump. Check out stinkbuds how to get a harvest every three weeks or heaths vertical flood grow. Both will point you in the right direction. As for me Im doing stinkbuds aeroponics build. So far so great.
