Starting Algo at specific month

Hello All,
I am new to Quantopian, but i have coded in python for about 6 months now. I am trying to have my algorithm start on a specific month but the code that i am trying to write is not allowing me to input a numerical value or a string for the specific month that I want. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

thank you,
