Hello camilosky, Here is a list and link for the top 10 medicinal herbs:

10 Most Popular Medicinal Herbs
Echinacea, Ginger, 
Ephedra, Ginseng, 
Feverfew, Saw Palmetto, 
Garlic, St. John's Wort,

Here is a list and link to a hydroponic medicinal herb growing kit:

Chamomile      Mint      Calendula      St. John's Wort     
Dill      Lavender      Lemon Balm      Feverfew
Yarrow      Fennel      Echinacea      Horehound    

I could not find a list of all medicinal herbs that can be grown using
hydroponics. However, I called the National Sustainable Agriculture
Information Service (contact info below) and talked with Preston. It
is his opinion that any medicinal herb can be grown using hydroponics.
He was very helpful and said that their real expert is Steve. Steve
was out of the office, but I am sure that he would be a good guy to
talk to.
