Painting CAL on the ladies

Hi guys
So i was wondering in an online shop for nutrients for our ladies and what not when i read "CAL for trees and bushes"

Like this.
so our girls are bushes. I wonder, would our girls assimilate this well?
I grow indoors in a tent, alot of people strugle with calcium either because of led lights, or genetic calcium feeders, or low temps in veg with lights, whatever the reason, any one tried it?

I wonder, they even got small root white points in the bottom of the main stalk, some side branches can have them too like you guys know, they can eat from the roots, leafs, and what about the stem or stems?

if nobody tried, whos the first?


Peace :tiphat:

Very tall them horses.

I wonder if it's meant to rain off them, like a slow release. Just painting the bark seems unavailable.

Hi f-e, how have you been?:wave:

I thought about that, but then remember the white root dots on the stem and also, a lot of people use cloning gels and powders or mix them both with cuts, some just on the tip, others on the stem also, i dunno how the CAL that i saw works really, but i wonder if our girls could suck it even with a little help from us..

In reality im just curious if anyone here had tried it:dance:

Perhaps the local authority workers misunderstood 'apply near roots' :)

Painting tree trunks where I'm from is to prevent cracking and splitting of the tender new annual bark which can allow disease, insects, and fungus on some trees. It's old school and not done here anymore. One of the things people noticed is that that the trees that didn't get painted across the street or down the street faired just as well as the ones painted. 😎

In my country too, and in some places they still do it, but also what iv read is that the paint is made from CAL and that in fact delivers calcium to them, while it protects them too..
if one day i get a can of that thing i will try it :D

Peace :tiphat:

Its for insect protection. Dunno how it helps but yeah it's "lime paste" or something similar. People do that to fruit trees all over eastern europe.
