Blueberries need evenly moist soil and will require regular acidifying soil amendments.
Growing blueberries is basically the same as growing their cousin, azaleas, except they require full sun.
Blueberries are sensitive to the type of fertilizer used, how much and how often apply it and the irrigation water provided to them.
Do not fertilize during the first six months of growing. After the first six months, feed with balanced fertilizer before the plants bloom and after fruit harvesting, to encourage growth for next year.
