Hey guys as spring is just around the corner I would like some advise on timing my light schedule in order to establish some girls inside with the plan to take them outside when spring starts.

Where I live, by late October, early November there will be a total of 13hrs of daylight (Not including twilight/dusk) so I will be aiming to plant outside around here.

I am going to pop my beans in two rounds starting off with some Feminised seeds of strains I already like with a hope to be able to have taken several clones off and established before November.
Followed by a second round of regular seeds closer to November (may even omit this and just start straight outdoors).
How long should I allow for my feminized mothers to grow to a point where I can start taking clones of them. (1 month? 2 months?) My veg room is currently about 200wats worth of cfls in custom made setup.- can get more lights if needed.
Also what lighting schedule should I run in my veg room in order to sync with outdoors, 13hrs? more?
I attempted this last year but I did not consider this and my plants went straight into flower :(

So yer by November I will be closing down my veg room and hopefully have everything planted outdoors and I really don't want anything to go straight into flowering at the beginning of the season like last year :/

Thanks in advance guys.

Any other opinions thanks tho doubletake.
I have not had good experience with auto flower, normally don't get much bigger than 2foot and yield pretty badly.
