We have about 10 blueberry plants - one of which is over 50 years old. So plant them well, treat them well, and you'll have blueberries for a long time!

I planted my blueberries in a mix of one half sand and one half peat moss. The berries absolutely love it. I dug the hole and lined it with this mixture. Blueberries also love coffee grounds! Thank you for the great information!
-
We grow a variety called Pink Lemonade. The berries take on a deep burgundy color instead of the deep blue. The birds don't realize they're ripe and have a tendency to leave them alone. I find Pink Lemonade to be a bit sweeter than regular blueberries.

my blueberries took several years before they really started cranking out the fruit. I also put some coffee grounds on them occasionally for acid. oh yeah, not just wild birds I have to fight to keep my chickens out of them too. :)
-
"fresh is best" I used to think this too, until I found my toddler sat with the freezer open, demolishing a tub of frozen blueberries. I tried one and I was surprised how much sweeter they were. The perfect snack on a hot day!

I love blueberries, picked them for for four summers at a farm in the south of England. I'm now living in France and am dedicating a quarter of my polytunnel to this wonderful fruit. From experience I recommend, Bluecrop, Herbert, Patriot, Duke, Spartan and Earlyblue.

I remember the first time my blueberries cropped at my allotment. I went down to pick them and they were all gone, I was furious that someone had knicked them. The next day the plot was covered in purple Badger poo, and I was like "oh, that's where they went!". I've always netted them after that.

My son bought my wife a blueberry bush for Mothers Day, so this video was very helpful Thanks
-
We are lucky enough to have inherited blueberry plants on our land, plus we’ve planted more. Highbush varieties do well in my area.(Upstate NY)
-
Thank you so much for this guide! 😊
-
I just bought 4 blueberry plants because they are my favourite fruit. I have high hopes LOL
-
Honestly I don’t know what verities I have. The 6 bushes I have were here before I moved in. They produce a lot of berries though and all are in a raised bed. I love them!
-
I am a first time blueberry grower in Canada. I have the Hat Top, Duke, Elliot, and Pink Lemonade planted on 12” pots. I hope they would bear fruits next year. Thanks for video! 💕
-
Awesome! I’m going to give it a try and plant some this spring!
-
I will try these next year. TY for the 411 on blueberries.

-
Am going to try them this year on my allotment. The ones in the video look so juicy thank you for the inspiration.
-

-

-
I love a variety of blueberries. We have Patriot, Legacy and Chandler - they are the favorites but we also have Duke, Bluecrop and some of the species berries, very tiny and really sweet if we leave them alone.
