Crush 2 Tums (antacid) tablets in a gallon of water. Add 2 Tablespoons of Epson salts to this water. Repeat this every time you water your plants. Others have used cup of hydrated lime in a gallon of water and apply at every watering. This is especailly effective in my experience. Don't use to much nitrogen fertilizer for the rest of the season and try to keep the soil moist at all times if possible...
Best of luck!
