well, youll need to plant them inside, let them get about 6 inches tall, then harden them off, (eg. less water, more wind..etc.) then just pick a good spot with water sunlight and as little pests as possible, my advice would be, if you hate spiders (like me) stick to indoor growing, theres nothing worse than going to cut down a nice big bud plant, and having a crazy spider running up your arm making you drop all your weed... its happened to me before, and when i got home and went to manicure my tree, i had loads of spiders making nests in my bud, so i had to get my brother to do it.... fuckin spiders...lol
its mostly about where you plant them that matters most...

I know that in my climate it's no hurry up to get the plants in the ground early as they don't mature until the fall anyway. I had four month old plants that finished right next to seven month olds. So, don't plant them outside too early.

I live in Estonia but the weather is allmost same here. I start my seeds in march, i let them grow like 5 cm then i move them outdoor into cold frame(see on picture) it's fantastic the sun will heat it up and plants are safe and warm there.
If you want you could move them in for night but i do not. i have this box with little heating inside so they wont freeze, its nice way to start your plants outside little bit earlyer than others:) This is not picture of my cold frame, mine is isolated with rock wool and instead of glass i have plexiglass( i think it will keep more warm inside than regular glass)

But unless you add lights to the grow all you'll get are seedlings with tiny little buds, if you're lucky. Cannabis uses daylight length for flowering and there isn't long enough daylight right now and won't be until April, at the earliest. You'll only waste your time and seeds starting a grow outdoors during winter.

man i cant wait till spring, im gonna go around my spots with roseclear and stuff to get rid of most pests, then im gonna plant LOTS of plants, and spend literally all my time with them, that way i will be able to defend against pests better, and will be able to pick a good spot to hide in if need be, i might take my air rifle down just in case i get board, or any 'unwanted visitors' turn up...
then when it comes to autumn, i will harvest, and store a few sacks in my freezer, and smoke that up until xmas, by which time my indoor plants will be done, and i will have lots of indoor weed to smoke, and some outdoor to sell and smoke...:) - thats my plan - :)

If I start seeds Apr 1, move outdoors Jun 1 (traditional garden planting time here), the harvest will still be end of Oct., first of Nov., and that's with indica dom. pot. Seven months...long time but you can harvest some weight!

when i do my outdoor grow im gonna make somethin for transporting 4 plants at a time, slyly, as i have no car... then ill go down, plant the first 4, and prepare four more spots, then get 4 more plants, prepare four new spots, and so on, until i run out of my own soil, then im gonna find a patch of good soil, and plant a whole bunch of seeds in it, just to see how they grow, then all i need is some bottles, and i can go down to a near-by fresh water spring (out of public view) and fill them up, that way i can leave them down there with all my other crap, and dont have to carry anything up there anymore, thus making myself less suspiscious to people..
my only slight problem is that its a common dog walking area and its close to a school and a police station... but who cares?!? lol im only havin a bit of fun in the woods climbin trees! lol

cannabis uses the longer dark period to flower usually 10 - 11 hours of darkness can trigger flowering in most strains which is why they naturally flower in the fall for most people in the northern hemisphere you can usually place a 2-3 week old seedling outdoors in the early spring and it will continue to veg even though it may be recieving enough dark hours to trigger flowering in an older plant or clone.
if a plant starts flowering it will have to revert back to veg as the night hours decrease during spring which will slow it down alot to the point where you didnt really gain anything by starting to veg the plant so early indoors to begin with, something to think about so you will check to see how many hours of darkness it will be receiving before you put that 2 month old plant outdoors.

if you have indoor lights, start them whenever you like, my advice would be to use a couple cfls, and keep them super-close, so they are dwarfs, but still a little grown up.... good luck ;)
