Blueberry Season! Don't we all love blueberries
Packed with antioxidants
kids love them adults love them and we all want to grow a blueberry in our backyard
so if you've ever tried to grow them in the ground you'll know that they're a
little bit fussy they're like really good drainage and they like an acidic
soil so getting the right conditions can be a little bit tricky in your garden so
if you want to grow a blueberry growing them in a bag is a really great way to
grow blueberry they're easy Greg's growing them in bags here for
years he's had ten year old blueberries in bags and they're as good as when he
planted them so this one here is about three years old and you can see it's
really just starting to flourish we're just getting a nice pick of fruit off it
that's going to be ready in a few weeks we need to be patient
So if you want to grow a blueberry in apart this is your potting mix that
you're going to need so this is your block of coconut Coir so it's just
coconut fiber there's nothing else in that completely organic and it's a
really lightweight fibrous mix so you can see how loose that is and it's
perfect for growing blueberries in because it's really well aerated so it
gives them ideal drainage and you can add a little bit of slow release
fertilizer to it and that's all you need you can actually use it as a basis for
all sorts of other potting mixes you can also use it as a mulch so it's a
fabulous product to have in your shed you're going to need something to plant
your blueberry in so we love these bags these are what we call bonsai bags and
they come in different sizes so at 35 litre bags perfect if you want about a 2
meter plant a 20 litre bag which is what we have this plant hearing it's going to
grow you something a meter to a meter and a half and these are absolutely
ideal for blueberries they make your plant very easy to move around you can
insert that into a nice ornamental pot if you wanted to look a bit more showy
So you're going to start with something like this this is the wonderful
blueberry burst which is a new selection of blueberry and it's perfect for
growing in bags it's a lovely compact
plant that grows to about a meter and it's really going to love a nice aerated Coir Mix
So how many blueberry plants are you going to need to plant well I would
recommend you start with about five selections and make sure you check what
your climate is and choose the ones that are right for your area so there are low
chill selections for warm climates and there are high chill selections for
cooler areas and choose a variety of the different varieties for your area that
will give you cross-pollination and give you a better crop on each bush and about
five plants is going to give you a really good fresh pick for fresh berries
straight off the plant and you can also going to have bowls that you can take
into the kitchen turn into jams make into sauces and use creatively in your kitchen
