I lived in Florida most my life and the amount of sunlight doesn't change as much compared to the New York area I'm in now. Costa Rica has almost no change in amount of light year round so you can grow basically whenever. Just go with a sativa dom strain, like Haze or Durban Poison, something with at least 60% sativa, but I would go with a 80% sativa. If you grow a heavy indica, it might not even veg.
