New to growing but have been soaking up information on this website like a sponge. I am going to try guerrilla growing. Couple questions I would like some advice on: 1) It is getting to the end of June and I don't have my pants in, I know it is getting far to late but the climate that I have does not frost until late fall. If I constructed a greenhouse in the "cutties" could my clones (sorry I forgot to mention that I am getting clones from a friend) survive until late fall or whenever the plants are programed to flower. 2) If I set up a light out there, I have a outside lighting light that I will post a picture of, this is really bright and I believe it is a Metal Halide bulb if I remember from my reading. So the question is could I hook up a car battery in this greenhouse to power the light and a fan if need be. 3) Clones are not ready to go outside from the get go if I remember correctly so I will need to get them rooted properly first. I have garden tech Rootone (rooting hormone with fungicide) and Root and grow (rooting stimulant). I am fairly certain the that Rootone is for cloning as I am in the process of trying to clone some tomatoes. Can I use these "rooting Stimulants" to help the clones when I get them or should I not use them until they have a steady root system first?

I have a couple more things to add in about my climate, I live in Northern California but what could be considered as the border between Northern California and Southern California, there really isn't a winter here, some days are overcast but have adequate sunlight however most are sunny so if I play my cards right could I have a budding, flowering prosperous plant? I thank you all for putting together such a well rounded informative forum. Keep on tokin' those chronic buds. :rastasmoke:

edit: I will be letting the clones soak up light in my closet until they are ready to plant. This is the light, and the greenhouse will be 2 feet tall and around 3 wide, I only want this to give the plants a start in the wild so how can I ween them off of the greenhouse when the time comes.

Some one correct me if im wrong...But I think the dealine is like July 22 out there? As long as you get some healthy rooted clones in their by then you should get a nice harvest.
