I have read in the past about using Hickory Smoke Flavor as long as it has no additives besides water.  What about bulbs that are mature but won't flower without smoke?  What solution ratio might one use with these bulbs?  Here in S. CA when we have fires it is amazing how many species appear that haven't grown or bloomed in years.  Joe,  Oceanside, CA
