I would take the clones if already rooted. If not, to risky for a beginer, I would use seeds. IMO.

One other thing depending on how cold it gets there you may need a space heater when lights are out, you idealy do not want it to go below 70F. not sure in centagrade. or above 95F. if it goes below 70 it will not kill your plants just slow the growth. below 40F will kill your plants.
