The questions you asked have been frequently explored in a number of threads. The link below will take you to several informative discussions about blueberries in containers. I'm pretty sure that with only a little exploring, you'll easily find answers to all your questions - at least I hope you do. ;o) Briefly: A fast soil is best because blueberries love water but don't tolerate wet feet. I like the gritty mix for BBs, but the 5:1:1 mix works very well, too. You CAN leave the lime out and opt for gypsum and use Epsom salts, but you don't have to. Fertilizing is discussed at length in several threads, so I won't elaborate, and I think you should plan on burying the plant on the north side of a heated building or over-wintering in the garage. Double potting would be helpful, as would a light-colored, opaque container. Good luck! ;o) Al Here is a link that might be useful: Lots of info about blueberries in containers

I have a couple dozen acres of forested property. I recall after buying my blueberry bushes from a nursery and getting really familiar with them that I was out hiking and found an entire patch of wild blueberry growing under a full shade canopy. Heh, I said a few choice words about finding dozens of them out there for free after paying for ones not much bigger.

I never sold tame blueberries for less than $4 pint (.67-.75 lb). I would also say $5-5.50. Make sure you tell people about the higher antioxidant value. Research the nutrients and post it. Also state if you think the crop might be lower than average, due to frost or such. Our local u-pick blueberry farms are already closed for season due to untimely frosts. Marla

I’d like to transplant some wild blueberry bushes into my yard underneath an Amelanchier i recently planted. I’m not certain if it’s the lowbush or highbush as both are in my area. When would be the best time to do this? Kyle
