I have a quantity of calicium water - 10% - which is a foliage spray
concentrate.  Would it be OK to use this as a dilution and just water the
plants with it?

What is calcium water?  What is in it and at what strength?  Why do you want
to water plants with it?  Which plants and where are they?

My tomatoes are getting quite big and I wanted to avoid BER.  This stuff is
called Foli-Cal.  I just don't want to waste it if the plants can't absorb
it by the roots.  The bottle says calcium derived from calcium acetate.  It
aint cheap.

Hmmm. Six grams of chalk in a 100 ml bottle of vinegar. People buy this
stuff you say?
