Hi Lee: did the pitting symptoms started to develop early during fruit formation (when fruits are about a dime size) or did it show up late.? Does the pitting goes deep into the flesh or is it limited to skin area? You may have corking problem not bitter pit ..

After reading a bunch of web sites about this problem, none really offer a plan, I only am concerned with bitter pit that shows at harvest and about 3 weeks thereafter, fresh market sales,in small quarter peck bags, dont give a hoot about storage because I am usually sold out in 3 weeks, I have some Foli-cal, how much to add to 100 gal tank and how many times during the season? Is it a good idea to add fungicide or Imadan, or spray by itself? Later I will spray trees with Surround to control sunburn, does it contain calcium, or prevent Cal uptake after applied? Ps the label on foli-cal is confusing, talks about per acre, does not compute. Its a 100gal tank sprayed to run off.
