start them now.....under floros......start about 20 seeds and then get them to a point of determining sex then only keep the best of the females. If your take your time....you will have great plants. Clones are not the way...in my opinion....you could get mites....bad geneics.....bad plants.....etc...etc...etc....I would go with something that will grow pretty easy your first time. Blue Dream...Green Crack....Grape Romulan.....Purple Kush....all grow pretty easy and are top medicine and yield pretty good.

keep them under the floros till about late April and then put them outside.
