FAST ATTACK TLO SPIKES<br />
When I first began spiking I used pure blood meal for vegging spikes and pure bone<br />
meal for flowering spikes. <strong>The</strong>y were both a bit much given that I prefer <strong>to</strong> flower in 2–<br />
3 gallon containers. So I began experimenting with various blends and here are some<br />
that work really well. <strong>The</strong> real key <strong>to</strong> all these are establishing them days before the<br />
roots reach them. This way the roots can adapt <strong>to</strong> what they find and where they find it,<br />
rather than having the roots suddenly exposed <strong>to</strong> raw nutrients. Remember for a fast TLO<br />
soil mix go with 1 part earthworm castings, 1 part perlite, 1 part good quality soil mix<br />
like Gardner & Bloome. Just make sure it is all natural.<br />
