You're such a great teacher

It has been many many years since we had blueberry plants. They started out very well until the deer ate them. Thanks for the how-to! Maybe we should try it again? Take care!

I've been looking at a number of blueberry planting videos recently as I'm getting ready to add a row of B. berries to the edge of my orchard. One important thing no one has mentioned is the number of winter chilling hours different varieties require. The people producing the videos seem to be from a climate that receives a lot of chill hours. I'm in a mild coastal climate and many varieties will not get enough chill hours to create fruit. I have a neighbor who has a dozen or so blue berry plants purchased at a local big box store. she doesn't see berries every year and when they appear they are low in number. I checked her varieties against a chill hour chart and each requires more chill hours that we normally get. I suggest adding a bit about choosing blue berry varieties suitable for local climates.

planting bare root blueberries for first time this weekend perfect timing on the vid thanks....

Thanks for all the great info, Jeff! I LOVE my blueberry plants!! I have 12, most are several years old, but I just can't help myself from picking up new ones, 😂 !! I would be interested in learning more about taking cuttings to propagate new plants. Also, I have found the perfect solution for protection from the birds. NOT bird netting, because the holes are too big, the berries pop thru it, and birds can get caught in it. The best is a fabric, called tulle (the material used for bridal veils). It's so easy to put on your bushes after pollination, with clothes pins. Birds don't even want to light on the material. It's perfect! Happy gardening and have a wonderful day!!

YOU ARE THE BEST.. THANK YOU SIR !!! LOVE your channel 😉 !!!

I can't tell you how happy I am with this video. I've been dying to see a good video on growing blueberries for ages. And I couldn't have wished for it to come from a better source! Very grateful!

Pine needles also make a great mulch for blueberries. They lower the ph and suppress weeds. 😊

i recently bought some new blueberry plants and you helped fill some gaps (especially how close to plant for cross-pollination, i wasn't sure) that i was having a hard time finding an exact answer for. Lots of of other sources provide rough descriptions, such as "close", but fail to define what that actually means. Thank you!

We had two bushes and our daughter at 3 years ate them along with the birds!

Looking to add blueberries this year, thank you for the video, very helpful!

I really appreciate your videos. I just found you and have learned so much. I have 4 blueberry, 1 blackberry, and 3 raspberry plants. The blackberry does well as well as 1 raspberry, but the blueberries need better soil. I live in zone 5b, south of Chicago, and it's quite cold. So I'm thinking I will remove the berries from their grow bag and replant follow your directions once the temps are a bit warmer. I can't wait to watch the rest of your videos. I really started gardening in 2020 and have so much to learn. Thank you!

SUPER!!! Getting setteled into my new allotment that's 300 m2 and was a mess when I took it over - BUT - I'm so interested in starting with growing blueberries! It'll have to wait maybe even til next year but THIS is a GREAT video to get me started once I can !!! THX 👍👊😉

Always great information! Thank you!

Thank you for your videos, I'm learning a lot. Even the type of berry to plant. I'm just getting started and i feel confident after watching your videos that i can do this.

BEAUTIFUL blueberries Ripe Tomato, trying to grow blueberries and thank you for sharing!! 😂🙏🙏

Thank you, this video was very helpful

Really good video thanks you. Calm delivery, lots of practical information, good speed and length. Often for other gardening videos I speed them up as they're so slow and rambling but yours was perfect.

You are awesome!😃☺
