Monterey Foli-Cal is a natural liquid calcium formula that helps to correct calcium deficiency in tomatoes, peppers, apples, and other crops. Calcium is a key part of a plant’s health, just like in humans. It is essential for good growth and structure and regulating cell and plant functions. Sometimes plants get a deficiency in calcium, which leads to blossom end-rot in tomatoes, peppers, and eggplants, and bitter-pit in apples. Foli-Cal can be used in vegetables, tree, and vine crops.

The directions direct to dilute in water and treat the soil, but I want to know if it can be diluted and sprayed directly on the plant. If not, can you recommend a product for calcium bicarbonate direct application.

Since Monterey Foli-Cal is a fertilizer, there should not be any issues applying it together with another product, unless the product label for the other product prohibits such applications.

I have used the spray that is used when you see the blossom end rot and you spray it directly on the leaves and flower. I would like to treat the problem and not the symptom.

According to the Monterey Foli-Cal Product Label: "Foliar sprays of FOLI-CAL are intended to complement good soil fertility by supplying nutrients directly to the foliage, roots and fruit of crops during critical growth stages. " It is mostly intended to be used as a full coverage spray on the foliage and fruit to allow for faster absorption and results. You should be safe to use it as a drench, but since the manufacturer does not state use instructions for this on the label, we couldn't advise on what rate to apply the product.
