I tryed to find the answer to this question in old posts, because I am sure it has been asked already. Any Way should Calcuim Nitrate be used weekly in a "drench" if not how often? I am using "solutions grade calcium nitrate" at a rate of 1 table spoon per gallon, is that enough? Sorry again if this has been asked already.......PD1

I don't know if this will help you. But I use a floral grade Chelated Calcium (10% CA, 6% N) that is organically chelated but derived from Calcium Nitrate. We use 2-3 fluid oz per gallon as a foliar three times a week & every other day as a towel wrap on the fruit. The weight per gallon is about 11 lbs if you feel like doing the math. I'm tired. LOL
