Planting & Care
Location: When selecting a site to plant your Highbush Blueberry, make sure the site has full sun and drains well. Blueberry plants require acidic, well-draining soil. When planted in soils with a pH higher than 5.5, blueberry plants do not absorb nutrients adequately and become more susceptible to disease. Blueberry plants can contract moisture-related diseases when exposed to humid conditions or standing water.
FGT Tip: You'll need multiple blueberry bushes to pollinate and get fruit, so choose a location where you can plant at least two bushes.
Planting: Dig a hole about twice the size of the root ball of your Highbush Blueberry, and as deep as the container it comes in. Amend the soil with peat moss or sawdust. Place the Blueberry bush in the hole. Cover the roots with soil-peat moss mix.
Watering: Your Lowbush Blueberries will need to be watered regularly during the growing season. The soil surrounding your plant should be moist but never saturated. Light green leaves can be a sign of overwatering, while drooping leaves can be a sign of over- or under-watering.
Fertilization: Fertilize your Blueberry bush twice a year, once in the spring and once after harvest, using a fertilizer for acid-loving plants.
Pruning: Prune your Highbush Blueberry every other year to promote greater berry production, and remove any less productive or damaged branches.
