Calcium Deficiency

Symptoms:
Calcium-deficient plants are stunted, having distorted, cupped leaves and characteristic interveinal chlorosis. Symptoms appear first on new growth.

Control:
Conduct soil and/or foliar nutrient analysis to confirm that the problem is nutritional. Follow recommended practices for fertility using a balanced fertilizer; liming prior to planting is indicated. Treatment with chelated CA may be used in greenhouse situations.
