What to do with clone when i have no indoor setup?

Hey all
i was just wondering as i am about to receive a really good clone of a killer strain but i don't have an indoor setup at the moment.
So i basically want this baby to seed so i can save the strain for later but then again that may not be a good idea as i do not have much experience in indoor growing so i don't really know what my best option is and that's why i am asking this question what should i do?
Should i grow outside till it seeds or will this risk it being sexed with another strain that could be close by therefore ruining the good strain?
any help would be appreciated as i am a bit clueless trying to figure out what im going to do
cheers SLiCeR

Buy some CFLs?
Even just 3 23watts will keep it alive. If you don't want to bud it anyway for the time being, just keep it 20/4 under some CFLs. It might not be optimum, but it'll certainly grow.
And hell, you could even take some clones from that clone, and keep it going that way. You won't be able to get seeds of that strain, unless you get pollen of that strain.
So yeah, sticking it outdoors with the intention of getting seeds will just get you some kind of hodge-podge plant with mystery genetics. Unless you pollinate it yourself.
-------------------- Of course it's happening inside your head.
Why should that mean it isn't real?

ahh and this is exactly why i asked this question cheers mate i thought it made sense that if it did seed outside it would be cross pollinated by some random strain cheers for the help mate

So you have a male as well?
Cannabis doesn't asexually reproduce, so you have to have a male plant to get seeds.

Clone is gonna be a girl, you will need to grow a plant from seed to grow a male, or find someone that has pollen from good genetics.

You gotta use some common sense here man. Think about what a clone is in the sense you know: an exact genetic reproduction of something...if it has the exact same genetic code, how would it be a male?
Stop growing for now, and start reading.

Cheers but reading isn't going to help me as the clone arrives today. I have been dumped with this clone i mean i'm not disappointed but i was actually getting a different plant (not mj) and my friend decided to send me a clone of his best strain of weed aswell in the package so what do i do? just chuck it in the trash? no of course not i fucken learn what to do with it. Sorry i only have ever grown outside and never cloned only grown from seed and i usually research everything i do before i do it but this time i don't have the time hence why i asked but now i regret this action cheers for the warming welcome 81renaissance

Lol no he wasn't.
Its a "clone", because its an exact copy of a plant. I mean, unless the person you got it from is a total asshole, or told you it was a male, its gonna be a female.

Touchy much? Most people here will tell you that I don't have that "M" next to my name and the trusted cultivator tag because I'm an asshole to people seeking information.
The link is a direct link to the grow FAQ's on the site! Why are you so defensive? The questions you're asking are so broad that the answers we would need to provide in the forums would be very long. Read through the grow docs, and you'll find the answers to almost all of your questions and you'll also see the basics of what you need to get that clone started in an indoor environment. When you know the basics from those documents, you'll be able to ask more specific questions that are easily answered on the boards.

Exactly.
It will take you what, a mere hour to learn at least enough to keep a clone alive?
