They still have the liquid calcium. It is in the fertilizer page about 1/2 way down. Nutri-Cal. $65 for 2.5 gallons with free shipping.

Not sure if live links are allowed so change XX to TT

One more thing>

How do you guys apply your calcium? How many ounces do you mix with a gallon of water? Do you stray the entire plant and pumpkin?

Thanks Kevin

Those looking for calcium. Should check out Cabela's, Gander Mountain or any place selling food plot seeds. They have a gallon of chelated calcium for like 13 bucks.

Kevin:
1 oz per gallon. Spray foliar, drench, or soak towels and drape over fruit after it's 21 days old...
Grow 'em heavy!
Hey, the Michigan patch tour is July 22 in the GR area, if you're interested...some nice patches are on the tour.

Check that other post on the fertilizing board. Some are recommending later (like 40 days) before applying calcium directly to the fruit...

Frank,
Thanks for the info., I will search the Fert. board and see what I come up with. It seems there are a lot of different opinions on the subject.
I noticed the patch tour in my last addtion of the Mi. Pumpkin Press, would like to go, but have prior commitments. Isn't your patch on the tour?

Yes, I am the first stop on the tour this year. Next year's Michigan tour will probably be in a different area. Maybe the east side of the state...

I heard somewhere where someone recommended milk. Does this really work at all?? I went to Ace Hardware asking if they had chelated calcium and they just looked at me funny like they never heard of it before.
