1. Planting:  When selecting a site to plant your Blueberry Bush, make sure the site has full sun (6 to 8 hours per day) and drains well. The plant grows best in moist soil, not in soggy soil.

When you're ready to plant, dig a hole that is about twice the size of the root ball of the bush. Make sure the hole is the same depth as the container it comes in. When planting more than one bush, dig holes that are at least five feet apart in rows that are 10 feet apart. Place the Blueberry Bush in the hole. Cover the roots with a soil-peat moss mix.

2. Watering:  Blueberry bushes need to be watered regularly to make certain that the root system becomes well established. The soil surrounding your blueberry bush should be moist, but never saturated. Light green leaves can be a sign of over watering, while drooping leaves can be a sign of both over or under watering.

3. Fertilizing: You do not need to fertilize your Blueberry bush at the time of planting. Fertilize your Blueberry bush twice a year, once in the spring and once after harvest.

4. Pruning: Blueberries require only minimal pruning. Lower limbs can be thinned out to keep the fruit from touching the soil, and excessively vigorous upright shoots can be thinned out several feet from the ground to keep the center of the bush open and to keep the bearing surface within reach. Spindly, weak, or dead branches should be thinned out annually during the dormant season.

5. Pollination: Pink Popcorn™ Blueberry Bushes are self-pollinating. You will get fruit with only one plant. However, adding an additional Pink Popcorn™ Blueberry Bush will drastically increase the size of your crop.
