Will rewatering to fix a deficiency hurt more than help?

If a plant has a calcium deficiency and you just watered it the day before, can you rewater with cal mag so that the plant can get better or do you wait until next watering.

I know calcium def spreads pretty fast. But would watering so soon do more hurt than good?

Thanks!
 
I was thinking also, maybe cal mag can be used on just the leaves until next watering but I am not sure that would help that much. But maybe this will keep one from over watering?

Water it again with what it needs....one extra watering is not going to hurt it. Be sure to let it dry completely before next watering..Increase airflow around pots to help dry it faster etc.

And you can foliar spray it also..it gets absorbed directly by the leaf/plant...read instructions carefully though.
