I'm not going to get into a diagnosis of your plants but garden lime is not fast acting and would not be a good choice for calcium supplementation at the stage of flowering your plant is in.

There is nothing wrong with garden lime and it is a source of calcium. It just takes too long for that calcium to become available for any benefit since you're getting close to harvest. There are other water soluble forms of calcium. Heck, eggshell tea would deliver more calcium faster than garden lime. There isn't much to do with that plant besides just letting it finish. You have a few weeks left.
Good luck

They’re trying to tell you don’t flush.
Just feed 1/4 of the amount of nutrients you use in the same amount of water.
If you put 2 tsp in a gallon, put 1/2 tsp.
Still use the gallon of water.

there's a product made for tomatoes, that's basically a spray calcium solution,

the 16 oz container makes 8 gallons, and that's about the fastest way i know to get calcium back into their system. the garden lime will work, but it just takes longer, and you don't have a long time to wait. be sparing, i'd go about half the recommended strength, and apply it just once

you're very enthusiastic....knock it off
...just call me roger.i'm never used eggshell tea, but from reading about it, it looks like a good alternative, but i'd go strong with it, they recommend rom 10 to 20 shells in a gallon of water, i'd go for the 20.
