too late?

,I am living in Nor Cal and quite green to growing outdoor. ,From what I've heard it',s too l,at,e to start se,ed,lings for this season, but what about starting clones? How old do they need to be to expect a decent harvest? anyone know if larger clones are even available? ,, ,

I'm still pretty green myself, but from everything I've read it's not too late to start some seedlings outdoors. The yield will of course be affected due to the lost veg time. I have 30 seeds germing at the moment, getting planted this week.

You could start clones, but they'll be small. I started some clones outside about a month ago that went straight into flower ... due to other reasons. Anyway, it would still be worth it if the clones were good-sized and hardened off already.

so I guess I'm looking for hardened off clones

You're looking to do it ASAP. If you can only get fresh young clones, spend a week hardening them off and then put them in the ground.
