Joshua, it's always best grow the clone bulblets as large as possible before the long chill cycle. As long as the mother scale is solid, that means there's still plenty of nourishment that can be used by the bulblet. You will run a little later start with the chill, but that's ok because starting them a little later in the spring makes very little difference, and, it's well worth it because the larger bulblets both grow and develop faster. Keeping them on your seasonal time clock is secondary right now. Their real important time clock setting will occur the first winter outside.
