Also FYI, since vinegar (5% storebought) has a pH around 3, you can do a 1 in 100ish dilution and land at pH 5. Ends up being around 1fluid ounce per gallon of water.

His boss recognizes his potential and advised him to study horticulture (plant specialist, gardening etc). Well eventually he get a degree in horticulture. He met his future wife also at the greenhouse. He helps manage it too:. He has fabulous. container gardens in his back yard . Stick with it. Growing food never goes out of style. It’s really cool when grow it yourself:) Good luck!

I have my blueberries in a whiskey barrel planter, until 3yrs ago I was having one struggle and yellow for years, in various soil mixes and acidifiers but soil tests kept saying it was alkaline (short of dumping vinegar on it nothing helped); then I looked up solutions and long story short, i found one guy who said he grows his in straight up peat moss to work around the acidic soil problem. Now, both the previously struggling one and the 3yr old bush have grown massively and i get like a quart full of berries each year. Easily was the best advice I found.

Good video for beginners. Soil acidity is the most important thing to know about taking care of blueberries. Selecting the right container size before you buy the plant is good advice in general, not just with blueberries.

Im testing my soil tomorrow . I don't want a blueberry funeral . Thanks !!! Great video !!!

I love the idea of feeding the birds well. What a happy compromise!

I first got the idea that blueberries would be a good idea to plant when I saw numerous wild blueberries growing everywhere around here. Apparently, they just love the native soil that also has a ton of red oaks growing nearby. Two years after planting to large bushes that were suited towards our zone 6A (Now 6B) climate, the became flush with blueberries! The first year I learned just how much birds and deer love them too, because despite the flush, I must have only had a few off of the bush! Every June I apply some netting and it seems to solve the pest problem!

I agree! They do far better in the ground if you have acid soil and I got blueberries the first year! The ones in containers took forever but took off once in the ground. Leaf mold is good for them too from my oak trees!

Thank you Kevin for having Meg teach us the blueberry magic. As a good host, never forget to thank your contributors/partners at the end of the video for their contribution to your channel. This came at a perfect time as I want to grow blueberries this year.🌿

I just bought 4 three year old blueberry shrubs two weeks ago!! Perfect timing. Love this channel more by the day!

My mom bought two blueberry plants 2 years ago cause she loves them, I do not. Well my mom promptly forget about them and it fell to my responsibility to care for them. I managed to get them in large containers and they have survived, but barely produced. Probably because after watering them and giving them soil acidifier and berry tone stuff, I promptly ignore them to take care of the plants that are for me. 😆 With this video, I have a better understanding on how to care for them, and I will try to be better at taking care of them.

From first hand experience, it is not necessary to limit your plant selection to "container" varieties. I learned a lot from a professor who taught agriculture at a Texas University specializing in fruits and nuts. And he had a large personal green house. He grew a huge assortment of fruits in containers. Most of those containers were well under 20 gallons. We are talking trees. NOT dwarf varieties. He selected the very best varieties for his purposes. The container naturally limits the size of the plant, but not the size of the fruit itself. The yield matches the plant size. This was perfect for my purposes. I grew my own "urban orchard" with most of my fruits in containers. I used 14 gallon rubbermaid totes with drain holes drilled in the bottom. For example, I grew 2 full sized varieties of sweet cherries. The containers limited the plant size to short enough that I could tend to them without a ladder. For an experiment, I even grew a full sized variety of mulberry tree in a container and that's amazing given that it has a central tap root. Remember, the variety was full sized, but the container limited the plant growth. For me, blueberries were the easiest fruit to grow of all that I tried. As I recall, I grew around 5 varieties so that I could have ripe blueberries from early until frost. Each one was a full sized variety selected for the very best characteristics for my purpose. At 14 gallon pots,, I doubt that there was much of a dwarfing effect. Do not limit your choices to "container" varieties. Pick the very best varieties for your purpose. The container will limit root growth. The plant will limit it's canopy size to it's root capacity. Naturally dwarfing the plant if necessary. Growing fruits in containers causes the plant to fruit early in its lifespan compared to growing in ground. But I never got blueberries until at least year 2. So if your viewers don't get blueberries that first year, don't abandon your plants. General notes from my experience growing fruits in containers. 1. My plants needed a ton of water. I had to water heavily every day in the summer. (Probably smaller "container" sized plants would need less water. But the selection is limited and the yield is directly related to plant size.) 2. Bird nets were absolutely necessary. But bird net snags on everything it touches and rips up everything it snags. Leaves, fruit, and finger nails. Do not drape your nets directly on the plants because the birds can still sit on the plant and reach much of your fruit from there. But more importantly, you'll rip up your plant and fruit each time you remove the net for harvest. Save yourself a bunch of hassle, save your plant, and save your fruit, build a simple frame over your plant. Wood works. I used pvc pipe. Most of my plants were under a pvc pipe archway. The same frame supported frost cover in spring and fall. 3. Don't rush to harvest. Especially blueberries. Many fruits, including blueberries turn color long before they are ripe. If the berry doesn't release easily from the plant, it's not ripe. And many varieties ripen over a long time window. That is, some of the berries are ripe long before others on the same plant. (This is a poor characteristic for commercial growers who want to harvest the entire field at once, but is often a great characteristic for home growers that wants to eat fresh every day.) For best flavor, pick only the ripe ones. Let the rest hang on the plant For blueberries, there's a long time window to harvest any given ripe berry. As it hangs longer, it gets sweeter, but gets softer. Of course, at some point it becomes mush. Note that berries do NOT ripen once they are removed from the plant.

Great job educating us in tasty blueberries! So encouraging

Perfect timing. I have become obsessed with blueberries. My two cattle troughs, along with the raised beds, will be dedicated to blueberries this year. My current in-ground plants were started using sphagnum peat as a base. It sounds like better control of soil condition can be achieved in a raised bed type environment. Thank you for the great information. The fuse is lit.

I bought a bare-rooted Blueberry in San Marcos CA. Planted it in a large pot, good soil, and mulch, and 8 days later fed it. Before long Marcos CA. Before long new branches; and lovely leaves began the show. By December even those terrible winds did not hurt it, but broke two 6" avocado trees! Now it is full of blossoms and I love this new addition to my garden. It is going to have a large amount of fruit to enjoy.

Perfect timing! My mom's blueberry plant is growing in a container and losing its leaves, so I started panicking! Going to get a soil test kit now! 🏃‍♀

So glad to see a blueberry video I was wondering where they had gone. I bought a bunch of blueberry plants based on your other videos and wanted to say thank you for sharing your experience with us!

Thank you!! This is so timely for me. I was wondering just this morning if my blueberry plants were really okay (they look okay, for now) and what I could do to ensure they stay healthy. Thanks for reminding me to test the soil.

Thank you Meg! I’ve wanted to try growing blueberries for a while and hoped this would be the year, so your video is perfect timing and maybe the inspiration I need!! I’m also in NC so yeah, that clay soil is terrible and I only use containers, so again perfect video for me!🎉 Great tips! ❤ Also love how you mentioned feed the birds. I do as well to deter them from my garden. Also adding a bird bath especially helps in the summer to keep them from poking my tomatoes.😅

Great video, but wanted to offer a friendly correction that could really bum someone out if left unnoticed: she said to not worry about checking chill hours if you go to your local garden center, because they would only have stuff suited for your area. Hah, I wish 🥲 Home Depot and Lowe’s are notorious for shipping the same stuff everywhere. Here in SoCal they routinely sell lilacs, even near the ocean. Same with stone fruits that require like 800+ chill hours. Please check for what varieties work in your area before heading to the store!!!

I always tell people with bird problems to feed them and keep them watered and they will leave your garden alone!! A lot of the time they steal our berries because they are thirsty as well!! Great tip! I’m sure it will help many!! Also, thanks for the tip about leaves falling off of them. I’m in Alabama and mine have fallen off. I get worried every year because usually one will come back and the other stays dead 😭

This video is so helpful. We put pine or fir sawdust around our plants each year (in ground). Ours have been happy for many years. The pH is important.

I just bought a couple of Blueberry plants and getting ready to plant them in containers. I was already to plant them, once I get some acidic soil or amendments, in a couple containers I had used before. Then you brought up making sure to have a large container to put them in. Mine were probably about 5 gallon. That's probably why my blueberries before didn't make it before. So, will be picking up a couple more pots as well. Very informative video! Thank you!!

What about growing huckleberries ? I lived in Montana for 4-5 years and I really miss them. I think huckleberries are much more flavorful and bigger in size too. I would see huckleberry stands on the side of the road and stores filled with candles, homemade soaps and anything else you could imagine. It was wonderful especially huckleberry icecream, YUMMMM !!!

What about using a large 1/2 whiskey barrel for the blueberries? I have one that is empty now that I can use. Instead of using bird netting, I use the fabric Tulle in my garden. You can get it at any fabric store, Walmart or Amazon. It's awesome and doesn't harm the birds like bird netting does. Thanks for your information!

My story is just like yours! Four dead bushes. So they were felled and I added soil acidifier. I have a 6' x 3' raised bed that I will plant two bushes in. Until they fill the bed I will plant some other things with them. Great video and very informative. I will say that irrigation is very important and, in my 6B-7 zone I might actually need shade cloth during the harshest of the summer sun.

@MeanOldLady

I'm in the same zone & mine LOVE the scorching summer sun when everything else but the sunflowers hate it. They got all but early morning sun. But they're also 10' away from the pine trees so it's naturally acidic there. They handled the drought this year beautifully (heavy clay soil) & I only watered them 3x. Getting babies established, I'd use the shadecloth for sure, but for the most intense part of the day.

Great vid. Nice concise, detailed. Definitely, beginner friendly. I left feeling confident that I could buy a blueberry bush and be successful in my area. Very valuable!

Very well explained. Thank you. Now I’m looking forward to trying to grow them.

Excellent advice. I have blueberries in whiskey barrels. The acidifier shown is what I use and it’s really simple to use. I was advised to use a berry tone from the same brand but haven’t tried it yet. I had a small harvest my second year but the birds got to them first. I’ll be adding a net when the berries start forming. I do feed the birds and have a native plant bed for foraging options for birds but they took the berries anyway. I’ll see about adding more bird feeders as well. I have early bloomers. They bloom and harvest in early spring. I have the regular blue and also a pink lemonade. The fall colors they bring are really beautiful and are different depending on the variety. A really stunning show and well worth the bird issue.

Top hat variety worked really well for me when I was growing on the east Coast 👍 produces nice size clusters of berries and is pretty good if you don't have a lot of space
