Definitely if you are in a position to grow from clones, do that. They take far less time to grow to size and you'll spend less on electricity if growing indoors because of the shorter veg time. Seed plants do yield more though, so if you're growing outdoors it's arguably worth growing from seed rather than cutting but cuttings offer advantages seed plants don't, such as giving plants of known characteristics and being cheaper because you don't have to keep buying seeds form a breeder, you have the plant for years.
Having a healthy mother plant from which to take cuttings is an important thing to have. There are different ways of doing things but I would advise you to grow a bonsai mum which will allow you to take cuttings from a plan that takes up only 8 inches by 8 inches like the plant shown in the photo below from Oltimer1's website, Cannabase.
Oldtimer1 describes the technique on his Cannabase website which is straightforward and allows you to have multiple strains in a very small area with simple, cheap low power T5 shop lights.
Plants that size would be perfect for me
What kind of yeild might somthing like that have? 3-5oz? Less?
