I'm in california and I have had 2 blueberry plants for 5+ years. my tips 1. grow in pots not in ground. 2. use at least 50% Peat moss soil (they need the PH peat provides). 3. I fertilize once a month spring- summer with miracle grow shake n feed. They have been super easy to grow! The real trick is to use Pots and Peat moss.
Thank you for this tip.
Thank you for the info
Appreciate the info thanks😊
I have been thinking about growing blueberries and I will try those tips thanks
What size pot do you use?
You werent just whistling Dixie, this is the best blueberry video. I had to watch it twice, and I still bookmarked it to refer back to. Thank you!!!
I appreciate that! Thank you!
Couldn’t agree more.
Yes, awesome video! So detailed.
If you HAD to choose your top 2 figs for taste/production, which would you choose?@@TheMillennialGardener
I did same thing. Great blueberry vid!

Hii, gentleman. U looks more gentle! But the goggles 😬...
Do you have a follow-up video to show how your plants are doing?
I just discovered your channel and it's so very educational, thank you. Just pity so very US centric. You would increase your hits if you remember that potentially English speaking people from across the world could watch your videos. For example I am in South Africa. I have to translate your months to southern hemisphere...could be useful to refer to seasons instead, and climate of course. Just an idea. We'll done
@@elmapollard4238 Aussie here too. Trying Blueberries for the 1st time.
Thanks so much. I'm a landscaper and I didn't know all of this. We do things pretty much the same. I use pine fines in most of my plantings for texture and drainage. It will also help with the ph.
Your videos are AMAZING. I learned more about why I have never had success growing them here in NJ, in your first 4 minutes, than in years of “experimenting myself. Your videos must take many hours of prep, and they are probably the best I’ve seen on CZcams.
MANY THANKS and continued success.
Thank you. This video legitimately took days of research and was probably a 40 hour endeavor to put this together. But, it's worth it to me, because my goal will always be to help as many people grow food as possible. Here in my HOA, everyone has these ugly, ratty bushes around their homes, and I always think...why can't you rip them out and put blueberries around your house? They're beautiful bushes, and you get blueberries out of the deal!
@@TheMillennialGardener They can turn some pretty colors in the fall, too. Thanks for the great videos.
@@shampoo7112 thank you for watching!
This is very helpful. Thank you so much.
@@TheMillennialGardenerexcellent video! Thank you so much. You are correct there is much to proccess here. This will require several listens! Looking forward to better understanding. But alteady so much has become more clear. Keep up the good work!
Have you ever propagated from cuttings? I saw on another blueberry video that blueberry seeds can be grown from an organiclly sourced blueberry but it probably will not bear fruit ever but that a fruiting bush cutting can be grafted onto the plant grown from a seed. Wondering if you have explored this?
Damn, you weren't kidding when you said this video was packed with information. This one's definitely going in the watch later playlist for next spring. Thanks!
Thank you. I put *a lot* of work into this video. I've been collecting footage since February, and spent hours researching different varieties and categorizing them to make everything as easy as possible. Hopefully, it'll be worth it in the long run and help a lot of people.
This is not only the best blueberry video on the internet, this is one of the BEST videos - regardless of topic - on the internet... period. Informative, well-researched, VERY informative (with educated sources), and it was considerably grammatically correct! (I.e., "shovels full" ...THANK YOU for that!) VERY GOOD VIDEO! WELL DONE! BRAVO!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that. It means a lot. It took several days to research this. I felt like I was back in school writing a paper 😂
@@TheMillennialGardener TOO MANY CZcams channel owners do ZERO work BEFORE getting in front of the camera, and MAYBE a little work AFTER the in-front-of-the-camera moment is done. If you keep this up, you will QUICKOY become THE "go-to" CZcams source for gardening. Bar none. I've already forwarded your video to almost everyone in my texting list (safely hundreds!). I SINCERELY wish you the best. I'm North of Houston, so my zone and overall climate is different than yours, but you provide all the information ANYONE living in the USA can use. Again, thoroughly enjoyed. Excellent. Wish you the BEST!
Thank you so much. I really appreciate that. I hope the video can help a lot of people. Lots of useless stuff goes viral. I hope something like this can go viral and inspire some people.
This will be INVALUABLE! We have been struggling to get a good blueberry crop.
Thanks for sharing!
You're welcome. I really tried to make this as complete as possible. I'm glad you are finding value in it!
You were right. Tons of info on BB's and well explained. I don't know how you could go wrong selecting and growing after that. We have about 8-10 bushes (rabbit eye - zone 8b) that have produced super for us the last several years and we rely heavily on the pine chips as a mulch. They purely love anything PINE - chips, bark, needles you name it. Nice job on the video again.
Thank you. I put a ton of effort into this one. Too many "Complete Guides" are very incomplete, and I really wanted to cover everything. Variety selection is walking a line between chill hours and bud break. It's often tempting to get low chill varieties "to be safe," but if the buds break too early, frost will kill the blooms. It definitely is a balancing act.
@@TheMillennialGardener I can tell you put a lot of effort into it and explained it so even I can grasp it :). As far as the chill hours vs bloom break that is definitely of high concern because even down here in 8b we still get frost nipped in early spring sometimes. So yeah as you say that's a real balancing act within itself.
@@TheMillennialGardener I had no idea there were so many.. I live in South Texas so no need to worry about frost; I planted a southern highbush last fall and I think I already see some blueberry forming!
Thanks for noting your results with pine needles. As a total newbie, I have heard mixed things from various videos (diluted vinegar is good/bad, pine needles are great/dried pine needles actually aren’t very acidifying, coffee ground do/don’t work).
As the pine needle mulch is easy and agree this video shows a lot of thought and effort, I’ll give it a try.
That was incredible! Not only do you have knowledge but you are great at teaching and conveying that knowledge. Video editing is top notch. Thanks for sharing.
Best blueberry video on the Tube!!! Bravo 👏 👏 👏 Answered so many questions i had from last season's grow.
Thank you. I worked really hard on this one, and I would not call it the best guide on the internet if I didn't believe it was the case 😀 Thank you for watching!
May I say your videos are among the best on CZcams. Ways you can improve.
Show more love to those of us in Los Angeles or Southern California because there are 20 million of us that are avid gardeners and I for one feel neglected. I believe I’m in zone 10 B with six backyard raise beds growing mostly vegetables. I have two blueberry plants that I bought from my local nursery of different varieties that never get more than 2 feet tall and since I put them in the ground they’re not bearing fruit. I did take a big hole and mix in blueberry potting soil and plants produced a couple of blueberries last year and none this year. Thank you for Sharing your vast knowledge of planting
Excellent and full video. For someone who’s moving to NC (near Rocky Mount), this is almost made specifically for me.
I’m going to be using this video for sure when preparing for and planting my bushes.
Thanks so much.
Thanks man, you consistently put out the most informative and well-arranged content of anyone I follow.
I appreciate that! Thanks for watching my videos.
Thank you , I purchased 2 blackberry 2 blueberry an 2 different peach 🍑 trees an planting this week , the peaches I planted already & blackberry,
Blueberry this week & live in Montgomery County, Texas 🙏🏻
Have a nice weekend
Josette 🇨🇱 🙏🏻💙💙💙💙🍑🍋🥦🥬🍅🌶🌽🍊🍈🫑🥒🥕🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻
Congrats! That's going to be awesome once they're fruiting! Thank you for watching.
I believe that it is the first time I watch that descriptive and thorough video re: growing blueberries. Thank you so much.
This video is the most complete ‘blueberry related’ video I’ve seen! I’ve saved it for future reference. Ps-you could be a college professor your video is so complete and in-depth. Thanks for giving me the inspiration to finally dedicate part of my yard to blueberries!
Today my goal was to learn to grow blueberries, and your videos on the topic are top notch, per usual! You might just be my #1 favorite gardening channel on CZcams. Thanks for all the work you put into these videos!
I've viewed this video several times. MG - my compliments on a well organized, information packed and patiently presented video about the topic. I've just begun my blueberry garden and dug my first three holes for blueberry plants out by the fence in the backyard. I return to the relevant section in the video as I progress.
I'm so glad to hear this was helpful! It took a lot of work and several months to put together this video, but it's worth it if it helps a lot of people. Every time I drive past the hundreds of homes in my neighborhood and see all those decorative bushes planted around the homes, I think to myself...what a waste! Blueberry bushes are the same size, they're just as beautiful, and you can be harvesting gallons of blueberries for little more effort. I hope edible landscaping becomes the norm!
Thanks so much. I'm a landscaper and I didn't know all of this. We do things pretty much the same. I use pine fines in most of my plantings for texture and drainage. It will also help with the ph.
This is absolutely the most in depth and informative you tube video on growing blueberries I have encountered so far. Thank you so much for this well organized information!
Glad it was helpful! I really appreciate the kind words. Thanks for watching!
Super useful tips and recommendations for one of my favorite fruits. Your passion for gardening and equally sharing your knowledge is so evident in all your videos. I live in the RTP area and find your gardening videos very useful and relevant to what I am trying to do after our relo from up NORTH
Thank you. I'm glad you're enjoying the videos. Moving down here from PA/NJ was a big shock to the system, since growing the classic vegetables (tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, squash, etc.) is dramatically more challenging here. The pest and disease pressure is a whole different ballgame in the Carolinas.
I swear, every time I bring home a fruit, you always have it covered! Thank you for the comprehensive tutorial. Kisses to Dale!!!!
From California's North Valley where the heat burns everything up in the summer... I really appreciate your shade cloth methods and detail in this blueberry vid. Now I think I'm ready to try again after giving up a few years ago. Thank You!
Just picked up another 5 bushes. Thanks for a great guide!
You're welcome! Best of luck with your new bushes!
You are SO RIGHT ABOUT RESEARCHING CHILL HOURS! Because there's false chill hours being reported (like this map 4:37 says Tucson is "600" nope, realistically it's 300 sometimes only 250! Some sites say "400" -- that's not to say that once in a blue moon we MIGHT hit that but we need to plant items in the 150-250 range. How much $ I have wasted reading a plant needs 400-500 chill hours and that Tucson is 250 many years so NO FRUIT.
This video IS the BEST guide for blueberries. Thanks for putting in the time, you absolute legend.
You're very welcome! I'm glad you found it helpful. I appreciate the kind words.
I am grateful you took the time out to make this video. You are very detail and I truly appreciate that because I am going to try for the first time to plant blueberries I wasn’t aware of all the different brands and how important it is to know what grows best in your area and a different soil so i appreciate you caring enough to make this video to help others Who see the wisdom and value.
Thank you for also listing everything we need and even where to purchase. 🤗👍
You’re welcome! I’m happy to hear the video was helpful. Now is the perfect time to buy blueberry plants since they can be plated in late winter/early spring. I got my plants from Bottoms Nursery in Georgia. They have an incredible selection.
Excellent information. Thank you so much. I’ve planted my first blueberry last year in Ontario Canada. So now I know it needs a friend!!
Love your videos! Just rewatched it as I’m getting ready to plan for blueberries in my yard. Learn something new every time I watch.
I’m happy to hear it was helpful!! Thanks for watching!
The" BEST" blueberry video ever !! You knocked it out of the park with this one !!
Thank you. It took months to put this together. I'm glad to hear it was worth it!
So much information, thanks! I now feel confident that I can grow my new blueberry bushes.
Thank to sooo much. Moved to this area so you just solved my issue on what to get.
I'm in NC zone 7b and this has to be the most thorough video I've seen on blueberries that is applicable to my area. The North Carolina folks were 10,000% right about how great this channel is!
So, so helpful!!! Thank you! I love your videos, I always come away feeling like I understand gardening better!
You are SO THOROUGH in Every aspect of Your Work!👏Here in Zone 7B, My Daughter gifted Me a "Jellybean" Blueberry Bush, in early Spring. 🥰You have definitely provided Me; with More than Enough information for a Success Grow! Thanks A Million; and Perpetual Success to You!❤️👑
Thank you Mr Smartie Pants, definitely the best video on Blue Berries,a cut above the rest!
Glad it was helpful!
Love the comment about positioning the bent bushes to grow out. I've never thought about that!
I can't wait until they start leafing out for the new year! Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much. Super informative as always. I'm in the UK so it's much colder here but I've seen others growing blueberries here & with your information I shall definitely start now btw before you put your compost etc.. in the hole I usually fill the hole with water and let it drain away first - to ensure all of my plant roots go down rather than come up towards rain water. Take care and thanks again. I've Subscribed so see you in the next video.
That’s a lot of great information there! When I’m working on my blueberries here at the nursery, I will make sure to mention this video for people to go check out.
Thank you! I appreciate that. I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
Excellent video, packed with everything you need to know about blueberries. Thank you. I have read different articles suggesting to avoid compost because it can increase the PH level or move it towards neutral. I also know people had great results with compost. So may be it does not matter
Compost is fantastic, but it just needs to be prepared beforehand. If you can build a mound, mix in elemental sulfur, top it with pine bark and let it sit for a few months to decompose and acidify, it could be an incredible growing environment. That's what I did. I put down compost months beforehand, added sulfur and pine bark around my house, and I let it break down for 8 months.
i wish more people love their four legged friends as u do...thank you for doing that for the planet
great info , shout out coming all the way from from New Jersey !!!! :) I am a new gardener....and by God by next summer my garden will be up and running... thanks for all your VERY helpful videos !! appreciate it ! I just bought two top hats, and I had no idea about cross pollination...so off to buy two other varieties in the morning... thanks !
Yeah Buddy, you certainly made this detailed and well thought-out.
I just planted some a month ago and used your info and that from a dozen other people, and your info is the most concise and detailed.
I got my soil form 7.2 to 6.5 by the time the plants got here. Still hovering around 6.2, but I know the sulfur I used will continue to bring the PH down over the summer.
Liked and subscribed already
Thanks for the info!
I'm glad to hear the video was helpful. That's great progress with the soil. As the ground heats up, the acidification should accelerate since the sulfur will be processed by the soil microbiology more quickly as temps increase. In the meantime, something like MiracleGro MirAcid can be a quick bridge to keep the plants healthy in the short-term while you work to long-term alter your soil with sulfur.
I Crown you-
King of the Blueberries!
So much knowledge!
Thank you!
Thank you so much for such good detail on blueberries. Very helpful for me and what to ask my local nursery. He has been helpful but I need to know.
Best video with no fluff. Thanks
Kudos for the stellar research! As an aside, I just received my soil analysis report and was dismayed to learn my garden is highly acidic(5.6pH). Well.....thanks to you I've found one bush that will thrive here.
Outstanding! I have more good news: many plants love acidic soil. Tomatoes, peppers, and figs will also thrive in those conditions. Acidic soil can turn out some awesome tomatoes.
i see this guy as the G.o.a.t-Gardener🙌🏽
he keeps making better videos over the years and keeps my interest at all times. love how he thoroughly explains everything, keep up the awesome work u do my guy👍🏽
A lot of good info quickly. Just the way I like it. No BS. Just good info fast. Thanks fore sharing.
Excellent video! I live in FLA an picked up a blueberry bush - glad to know I need to get additional for polinators. I like to use peat moss to help acidify the soil prior to plant time -
Be sure you have a variety that requires low chill hours and can tolerate warm summers (like a Southern Highbush or Rabbiteye). Best of luck!
I have a couple rabbiteye bushes here in southern Alabama. We only get around 600-700 chilling hours so I have to be careful about blueberry selection. I have Climax and Brightwell varieties, chosen for heat tolerance mostly. Brightwell produces larger, sweeter fruit but Climax grows better. Brightwell is said to split in wet weather but it rains a lot here and they seem fine. I recommend picking up Brightwell for a good tasting berry that grows in hot climates.
Rabbiteye are native to our general region, so they all mostly perform pretty well. My blueberries have been blooming since January, and none of the February or March freezes affected them. They're great plants.
Thanks for the info I saw my local sams selling blueberries plants and my zones are 11-13 but it get real chilly in my area
Where did you purchase the blueberry brushes?
Very complete!! Thank you!
Very good information. U gave me more info that any other vloger has on blueberries planting. I'm saving this video. I think u've changed my blueberry game. Thanks.
Outstanding! That was my goal. It was a big effort putting it together, so I'm glad to hear it was helpful!
Well done; this is how we planted our blueberries 4 years ago. Today, they are shoulder high and we pick berries every other day.
Very thorough! Thank you for sharing.
Really convenient timing that I came across this. We are working on our blueberry bed now
I'm glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
This is an invaluable resource for anyone who wants to grow blueberries. I bought a few bushes in pots and some fruit buds have shown up. I am in the tropics and they are doing well since I got them. I got Emerald, Sharpblue and some lowbush ones as well. Thank you for such the helpful,in depth guide to blueberries I've seen anywhere! I just subscribed to your channel and look forward to more excellent content!
PS Ferrous sulfate is also a good acidifier,I use it for miracle berry plants,it helps against chlorosis. And since bone meal is expensive in my area, I use Duofos. The cheapest pine bark I've found is marketed as reptile bedding but does just as well for plants. Can you please do a video on roses? Thank you
So... this year, I've decided to grow blueberries... but first, let me check my favorite CZcams gardener... and as always you are the Best!!! Thanks from Raleigh NC ❤
Thank you! I appreciate that very much. I'm glad the video was helpful.
Very thorough and detailed. Thank You
Awe so cute!! My doggies love their pillows& blankies (warm out of the dryer)😍
Such a detailed video. Thank you!
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching!
Your videos are awesome. So much information!! And easy to understand. I am very happy that I found you several years ago as I watch your videos as my guru. Lol. I have an old old old blueberry bush that I am trying to figure out pruning steps to re-vigorate it to produce. And I am going to plant some in the future. Thank you for your videos. Have a great day! 🎉
Thank you for the informative video! It will certainly help in preparing my area for the bounty of my blueberry harvest! Keep up the great videos!
Your videos are great and encouraging, thank you.
I am glad you discussed planting against your home and using the Blueberry as an alternative bush. Mentioning it is a shallow rooted plant that will not damage the house foundation was a great thing to hear.
I am currently working with a company that develops fertilizers. They just had a farmer who had issues with his crop dying due to cow manure used as a fertilizer. How? After investigation, they tested the manure, and it contained the chemical found in Roundup.
You mentioned using cow manure as a fertilizer. Please tell your audience that not all cow manure is created equal.
Maybe do a segment on this potential issue.
Thanks again!!!!
You actually just saved me a bunch of time with the intro! I'm trying to find a solo fruiting tree or bush for one location currently. Great resource though!
Exceptional video. Really informative. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching!
Amazing and very through explanation! Thank you!
Wow! Info packed, just what I needed! Thanx💗
You're welcome!
Thank you for explaining so well, as always😊
I’ve tried to grow blueberries with no success.
I will try your way next time..so helpful! Dale is adorable 😁
The challenge with growing blueberries is to pair them with your environment. A lot of people buy the blueberries that come in at Home Depot in April, but the truth is, they may be horrible varieties for your climate, because they just get whatever they get. Blueberries need to be carefully selected and special ordered from good nurseries. If you pair the right varieties for your climate, they will thrive.
More helpful advice. Thank you! I appreciate it!
@@sylvia10101 You're welcome!
G'Day from Australia, we spray white vinegar around soil of our blueberries they love it.
We have done the concept of a forest garden, mulch, mulch & more mulch which breaks down really well.
Our plants fend for themselves so they get the water from rain & in drought times we water.
Give the odd seaweed solution & that's it.
I have 4 varieties of blueberries along with fruit trees, strawberries, roses, lavender, herbs.
Your attention to detail is exceptional. So much new information. Just when we thought we knew it all😉…
I'm glad the video was helpful! Thank you for watching!
Wow! You're knowledge and attention to plant care is Amazing! Great job!
Glad it was helpful!
Amazing video, exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for putting in all the effort!
You’re very welcome!
Thank you. I now have a to do list for my berries.
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching.
Very detailed and informative. Great 👍
Great info, thanks. Love that Dale!!!
Incredible information THANKS for all the research....
You’re welcome! I’m glad it was helpful.
man amazing video!!!! thanks for your work 🔥
Outstanding, informative video. Thanks!
Thanks for watching! I’m glad it was helpful.
I killed a container blueberry many years ago but now am inspired to try again! Now to find some space in the yard :) Thank you for the excellent video!
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching.
great info on planting - now i understand why some plants need to be planted higher upto establish
Great sharing Anthony with useful information. Thank you. Jason from Melbourne Australia.
I love your video!! You are a great teacher!! I appreciate all your help with great information!! God Bless you!! 🙌🏻🦋🙌🏻
Thank you! I appreciate it.
Great video! Full of details!
Incredible video! Well done!
What a great video! Thank you so much.
Thank you for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Thanks so much for the all the great information. I am also in Ilm zone 8@. Learning so much from your channel. Helps having someone to follow from the same zone. Blueberries are on my list for this year and up came your video. Lucky me
Hi. This is the best presentation i have seen on CZcams.. Thank you very much!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much SO MUCH INFORMATION… have two that I just purchased a few weeks ago STILL IN POTS so now I need to figure out when to plant these as they are already loaded with berries 😩I’m thinking AFTER I HARVEST THE BERRIES and they won’t be so stressed putting on fruit and being planted in the ground … much appreciated the links on Amazon will go to order today crossing fingers that I don’t ruin these and that they thrive once they are in their forever home
Wow !!! Amazing information,thank you🏆
Excellent! Thank you!
Subbed because I like the precise delivery of information. I like to know why and how. I can't just do things without the study. I must learn before I try for some reason.
08:14 - the chart is what I really needed. I know nothing about blueberries except how to cook and bake with them... 🤣 For the first time in the past few years I managed to grab a pot from the local market before everyone bought them out ahead of me 😁 "Sunshine blue" is what I'm working with 😻
North Carolina? I came here to learn how to grow blueberries in Philly. I know a local accent when I hear one. Found out your about page to confirm you are from Jersey. If there is one thing I know Jersery grows the best blueberries around. This guy knows what he’s talking about! Great information especially about the growing zones. Subbing
I bought a random blue berry plant from Lowe’s that I was already ab 1.5-2 ft and producing fruit, then I learned about all these things and bought two pink lemonades and some sulfer. I sure hope that they end up doing well. Thinking of keeping them in containers so I can take them with me if I move.
This video is outstanding 🙌 thank you
You're welcome!
I need to thank you for all the advice! Got any Bilberries? Have you ever thought of growing cold hardy kiwi? I feel like it's up your alley. The fence might make a good trellis in your backyard
I have not considered growing bilberries. I've only heard them advertised as a supplement for night vision loss. I am not growing kiwi, but I am considering building an arbor in the future for vining crops, and kiwi's crossed my mind. I'm not a huge kiwi fan, but I like sharing 😀
This is the video I was looking for! Too bad I didn’t see it earlier in the year. I have several bushes still in pots and need to be planted.
Thank you!!!!
Now is a good time to start preparing your soil by putting down some sulfur and pine bark mulch if you need to lower the soil pH. Let it decay for the fall while daytime temps are still warm enough, so now is the best time to prepare if necessary. Thanks for watching!
Excellent information. I have Fond memories of going to U pic blueberry farm as a kid every summer.
Man my heads hurting….. I’m going to have to re-watch this a couple times; you’re very informed about trees….. ; )
