    I've watched a lot of blueberry-care videos, and this is far and away the clearest, most well-presented of them all. The narrator speaks logically and understandably, and the pictures re-enforce and demonstrate everything the narrator says. Five Stars!

    He's just hiding behind a slide show to spread gnostic doctrines. University comes from universe . People should learn to understand the definition of words (lexicography & etymology). The universe is related to Creation ; the study of the creation that is globally taken the beings composing creation. In this presentation, we are not teached universal knowledge, natural knowledge nor fundamental knowledge ; but a separated aspect of science based upon human conceptions of science called engineering (applied science) and ideology. These are not fundamental sciences anymore (like biology, chemistry, physics) but doctrines laying on subjective concepts for hidden/occult purposes. Fundamental science is humility & based upon God's knowledge. Applied & human ideas-based sciences are the treshold /demarcation line separating us from God's Creation. These sciences can be lead by spirits that are not respectful towards Creation anymore. It's important to be able to discern what kind of spirit is hiding behind every thing (object, sign, symbol,...), idea or person ; to understand the intention. So to make it simple the occult intention of this "lesson" is intended to arouse greedy emotions behind a universal banner. It's deception. And the other aspect to take into account is the spreading of this idea to become collective into action. This is how ideas are spread amongst the public through mental impregnation and become ideologies. Ideologies always cause prejudice since having the intention to be imposed to others. So what is happenning when we combine greed & prejudice ; when an applied science is serving an ideology? Take heed not be deceived people.

    A well done and very clear explanation of blueberry pruning. When I look at my blueberry bushes and their twiggy brushy tops covered with blossoms, I find it difficult to prune them. But after watching this video, and thinking about the small fruit they produce each year ...I think I will now find it much easier to make the necessary pruning cuts.

    Thank you. We inherited my dad's property along with 10 huge blueberry bushes that have never been pruned. We have been harvesting so many berries this year but there are so many tiny branches to move through to get to the biggest berries and they are at least 11' tall. So many berries will be lost because we can't reach them. This has helped me so much because I was thinking after watching other videos that we could start pruning after the berries were harvested. Thanks to this video I can safely wait until Jan-Feb to prune them since we are located between Winston and Statesville so they wouldn't have time for growth to harden off like a coastal area. Truly appreciate this video showing me exactly the limbs to remove since I just saw them and the effects of leaving them alone for so long!

I really appreciate going from a new plant on through the whole cycle. The other instructions or videos I've looked at so far haven't addressed the first few years of growing/pruning.

Now I know. I still have a rather large crop on my bush and so far pretty nice sized berries. I did take shoots a couple of years back off the tops of some branches trying to get new plants started, but ALL failed and was not able to get a single one to root for some reason. Hopefully this year I will get a few to grow. Any videos you have on doing that and the best time? I'm in zone 8 NE TX.

Does this work? If not I'm assuming that the plant needs the energy from the old cane for winter root health? Any suggestions. Fantastic presentation

    Plant health is usually one reason for not many new shoots being produced (i.e. low fertility, lack of irrigation or presence of disease). Also if the are lots of very old stems that need to be removed that can result in fewer new shoots emerging each year.

    I took some cuttings from Rabbiteyes and they successfully took but after a year in a pot I have one central 'trunk' as it were with quite a few canes branching up from the one central point. There are no other canes coming up from the crown. Should I remove all but three or so of the current canes and cut those back by half? Will this force the bush to push new canes from the roots under the soil and thus widen the crown? The plants are still in felt pots approx 12" round by 12" deep.

    When pruning Rabbiteye variety should you cut old canes to the ground level or higher up that old cane? That is, does the new whip grow better at ground level from the roots; or from a node on the stub of a cane pruned above ground?

  • @ARfruitveg

    @ARfruitveg

    2 жыл бұрын

    On very old canes (more than 5-7 years old) that have become un-productive and have twiggy growth it is better to remove the cane to the ground in winter. That being said renewal pruning (also called hedging) is sometimes done on Rabbiteyes to encourage new productive shoots in the upper canopy. This can be done in the Southeast US immediately after harvest (late July/early August). If done too late in the summer/ fall that plants will not produce new shoots and the plant will lose fruit production the following year.
