Growing Tips: Blueberries thrive in acidic soil with a high organic matter content. Ensure the soil is well-draining to prevent root starvation, as blueberries have shallow, fibrous roots that require oxygen. While good drainage is crucial, these plants also need consistent moisture, so avoid drought conditions. Plant in a sunny location for the best results. Consider planting multiple cultivars close together to extend your harvest season, as different varieties ripen at different times.
