Calcium Application

[2ndHand]

Looking for advise on purchasing and applying Calcium Chloride to control bitter pit. This will be my first year applying Ca Cl. Any suggestion on where to purchase or product name to look for? Will be using a Northstar tree sprayer.
Thanks for the help...:)!

I can only give you a source to price check "Midwest Grower Supply" I found them friendly, quick service and reasonably priced last year on other chemicals.

I dont have any first hand knowledge, I have never had the need to apply it. I am pretty sure it is just a foliar application. Maybe Maya will see this and post if he has first hand knowledge.
