the only problem is i dont have access to clones. unless i take some off of my biggest female, but i dont have any experience taking clones and rooting them seems like a gamble to me
I have cloned many times, its a breeze. First of all you won't hurt your females. Garanteed. If you can't get covered starting trays,Just get some 16oz partycups, poke holes in the bottom for plant pots, fill them 1/2 full with soil,perlite mix, take your cutting, dip it in water then root tone,stick it in the pot keep it below the rim,spray it with water and cover them with saranwrap. Seal it air tight and place it on a tray,(say a cookie sheet, fits 12 cups) keep them sealed for 10 days,water them through the tray if needed, you can tell by the weight of the cups if they need water. Its a snap, and I already know they are females.
I cloned 25 two weeks ago and only one might die.
Don't worry about experience, you'll gain that.
