Like many of you, I watched the Gary ZIll video on E-4 Sugarloaf recently posted on here. I came away with a few nuggets of wisdom, but also the question of how much Boron & Calcium I should be using and when. My smaller mangos all get fertilizer with micros, so pretty sure I'm covered using that, but I've stopped using anything but Potassium this season on my big tree that I'm trying to keep from getting bigger. I searched the forum for a good while, but I couldn't find any specific info. Does anybody have any recommendations on how, how much, and when to apply both/either?
Side question, I heard somewhere awhile ago that egg shells are a good soil amendment for calcium because the egg shells breakdown slowly. Is that true? I've been composting kitchen waste and there's A LOT of egg shells in it (along with plenty of used coffee grounds); I'm wondering if I can use it for a top dressing without supplying too much calcium.
