If you are going to add calcium, don't add lime. It can change the soil ph, but from everything I read gypsum doesn't. Go buy a bag at Lowe's or HD for $6 and you are set. You can add a handful under the roots and occasional mix some with water to feed the plants as they produce fruit.

If I remember right, tomatoes can’t utilize calcium in alkaline soil. Definitely would be wary of that.

Random thought: It seems most people don’t like the smell of neem oil. I, however, really like it.
