I can get good chronic and have been while gardening, but I wonder if I have the ability to produce 'medical' quality in my environment.

I never grew anything in my whole life before starting this garden and most of the time it's been great, but I'm getting very nervous about it.

Everything's decent except for temps, I cannot get them below 82 and it hovers around 85-87 under the Hortilux most of the time and I have to think medical producers have better environments, but its the best I can do short putting a portable A/C in there and I just don't want to think about that.

Funny thing is, Ive done most of my gardening on Chemo, which is sort of like living in Auto-pilot. Now that I'm off it, my mind's racing about 1,000,001 things about it.

You don't need a portable AC just get a couple of cheap fans. Put one in the top of the tent and the other(s) down with the plants. Not only does this decrease the temperature but it creates air flow that will strengthen the stems on your plants as they grow. I don't use expensive organic nutrients. I've used miracle grow 30-10-10 and have had great results. The main problem with potency in a plant is the harvesting date. Harvesting too early can effect the potency of your buds. I found that out the hard way.

I grew a sativa that was one of the best I've ever had just by using miracle grow for veg and a cheap tomato flowering fertilizer for the flowering stage. That plant almost took over my entire closet and the buds were huge. I had to tie them up to keep them from breaking the stems and collapsing.

As long as your PH is between 6.3 and 6.7, you have the proper ratio for nutrients, a constant reliable light cycle, and a good grow medium, you shouldn't have any problems.
