"Also with newly planted blueberries, I always tell people to pull off the blossoms from the first year plants that way they grow roots not berries."
Then I guess I better get to work picking blooms. They are covered with them. Thanks Allen.
Mmmmm, Mmmmm blueberries.
How well do they grow in the south? I thought they were more of a northern plant? I know you have the low PH down there, but can they take the heat?
They grow tons of blueberries along the west coast of Michigan.
Most of the plants are growing in my neighbors front yard. He doesn't use very many of them. We fertilize them and pick most of them.
We pick a couple of gallons of blueberrys each weekend during the season for about 6 weeks. What we don't eat, my wife makes blueberry preserves out of. We also freeze a lot of them for making blueberry muffins. we also make sure to give my neighbor preserves and muffins.
