how do you fix calcium issues

I use this product. If you've got a hydroponics shop near by try them, if not this is plentiful on ebay. Just search for the cheapest deal on shipping. The quart size will last a long time. I mix it in with hand watering can but I believe you could use it as a foliar as well. I see in your other thread concerns about wavy leaves. If it is mildly wavy then I would not worry about myself. Pics of your plants would help people out with their recommendations.

Good luck Mike

I LOOKED AROUND AND ALL I COULD FIND WAS BONEMEAL SO I PUT ONE SPOONFUL OF IT ON TOP OF THE SOIL IN EACH OF MY POTS.any idea how long it will take for the calcium to actually hit my plants?

bone meal won't correct instantly. Its more of an amendment to stabilize soil conditions for the long haul. It takes a while to break down. Get some Cal-Mag. It will work fast.
 
my plants are really green and healthy but my leaves are a little wavy.i did research and found that it is caused by lack calcium
 
Most of us have plants with leaves that are a little wavy. Care to share a pic before we recommend that you overdose your plants with nutrients? And how rich was the soil mix you started off with?

I'd be careful with adding any more bonemeal than you already have. Some brands also have nitrogen (miracle gro brand) and in the other thread you mentioned fertilizing with Miracle Gro yesterday.

Careful you don't kill your plants with too much attention. Oftentimes less is better with pepper plants, it's the tomato plants that are hogs with food and water, but not peppers.
 
here my plants look on page 2 http://www.thehotpepper.com/topic/22768-gnomepunters-2011-growlog/ i only gave each plant a small spoonful og bonemeal and as for MG i only use the small side of the scoop that comes with it and i water 5 plants with that.so 1 of the small scoops to 1 gallon of water i then distribute that among my 5 plants and after that i pour straight water into the pots about a half gallon per pot.i only water mine about once a week.

Those don't look bad at all, they look really good to me actually.

You can kill two bird with one stone by potting them up into bigger containers, they'll outgrow those in no time. Throw a little extra Perlite into your potting mix, then mix in a tablespoon or two of some all-in-one fertilizer (Espoma maybe?) and you would be all set. After potting up you may want to keep them in full shade for a day or two.
