Formulated with EDTA, it ensures stability and efficient uptake in both soil and soilless systems. Essential for strong cell walls, healthy root tips, and blossom-end rot prevention in tomatoes and peppers.
Symptoms
The most prevalent sign of calcium deficiency is blossom end rot, in which a plant or tree drops its fruit or buds and appears to rot at the tip.
Calcium Defeciency will also result in distorted growth and deformation of root tips, leaves, and shoot tips. In addition weaker plants are more suceptible to fungus and disease.
Other symptoms include distorted fruits that do not form correctly or partially rot while growing, low density of buds, significaly reduced quality, potency, flavor, and yield of harvest and shortened shelf life.
Benefits
Calcium is an essential element for plants. Healthy levels in plants are critical for fruit, leaf and bud development. Lush green leaves, increased growth during vegetative and flowering cycles. Fully developed fruits, vegetables and buds.
