Start a New Blueberry Patch! (Varieties, Soil Prep, and Planting Tips)

Amazingly informative, well edited, everything I wanted when I clicked on it! So glad I found your channel!

Blueberries are a great solution. They have beautiful blossoms in spring and you can harvest them until autumn if you choose different varieties and they look amazing in fall.

Bought 2 varieties from Lowes so they grew well in my zone. Dug 2 holes beside house in spring, threw in some soil mix, put lattice on wall so they would grow up with support. On 4th year of getting abundant supply of blueberries, walk out side door/porch, reach over and pick fresh for breakfast. Easy. Btw, never tested the soil. Got good dirt. Will throw coffee grounds out around them every once in a while.

This is a Berry good Video

Wonderful tutorial. Thank you.

This was really helpful thank you. It’s changed my plan of location and timing of planting out my new blueberries. Less sun in my desert climate and leave off planting till I’ve amended the soil. Great tips.

Hi, you would make a excellent teacher.

Very informative video! Your video is the only one I need to watch for my blueberries! Thank you!

Very informative! Thx

Thanks for sharing 💜 I learned something new!

Excellent video. You just saved me a lot of expense the way was going at it. Nicely done. Very informative. Thank you very much.

New subscriber. I am planning a blueberry patch, glad your video popped up for me.

I want a really tasty variety. I need blueberries yum yum!

This is great! I put some blueberry bushes in the ground last fall I got on sale. I’m gonna throw some more mulch on there per your recommendation. Thanks!

Great video. Thanks for sharing your experience.

Thank you for this video. I have a patch where I was, considering what kind of food I could grow. I also live in Texas, in Austin, so our soil isn’t as acidic as yours. I’m getting mixed messages about whether blueberries grow in the ground or not here. You really help me choose which varieties to get. I’m going to give it a go. I love blueberries and we are Incorporating food in our small plot of land. I do have two potted blueberries.

Great information!

Hi I just happened upon your channel and subscribed. I'm in Zone 8b Texas also, so glad you are! I look forward to your videos and learning more about backyard gardening in Texas!

I bought three bushes over the fall so I will start. I put them in pots for now, but I’m going to put them in the ground in a spot I have in my backyard, which gets a really good amount of sun not full sun, but still a good amount, but I was thinking man if we all had just planted trees, you know long long time ago of all varieties man we would had such a great garden and eat off. You know what we grow I have a pear tree that I planted 22 years ago in memory of my mom after I buried her the fruit now that comes off that pear tree is beautiful last year they were so big like softball size and I get about 300 pounds but the tree had never been pruned and it was really hard to get the fruit so this winter I have hired somebody to come and give it a really good pruning. It was pruned so much that I was scared that I wasn’t gonna get fruit but I already see the blossoms coming out. I’m so happy that means I’ll get fruit and it’ll be a lot easier to grab being that I’m older it was hard me and my husband were hard but we do do a lot with the pairs pair, preserves, pear, jammed, pear, jelly, fresh, eating pear, trees, blessing I was just gifted a crab apple so it’s already two years old so I will be planning that and my sons house cause I don’t have no more I really don’t have place to add another tree but he lives very close and I will once the apples come in, I be making crabapple jelly and I’m excited. I also got a fig tree that that I planted. I have a small space I planted so but it’s it’s crazy how now after Covid everybody is planting we really should’ve been planting years ago. I know some fruit trees take 5 to 7 years to get fruit…, but I still want to plan a few if I can even let my children’s home because I think it’s important to have those fruit trees when we were growing up when I was a little girl it was like it was nothing to us. we had a kumquat tree a low Quadri we had a elderberry ,mulberry. Oh my God and they were just like in the wild just growing we even had pomegranate bushes. I didn’t think nothing of it and now that I’m older I’m like man I want another one you know..
