Thanks!!

Interesting... that makes sense especially with heavier soil types. Down here in Louisiana with sandy loam it doesn't matter so much imo. One thing we do is break up the root ball and I've seen videos saying not to do that. Hell Keith, I planted our plum orchard with a post hole digger 5 yrs ago and they are 12 to 15 ft high...... good times as always.... hope the market garden is doing well.

That is exactly what I try to stress. The ideal method works in the ideal situation. If your situation is not ideal, then you have to adopt. Very interesting on breaking up the root ball. I can really see why that works. If the tree is rooted in a heavier soil and then planted in a well draining soil, moisture would not have time to soak into the root ball before draining into the native soil. I learn new stuff every day. Keep Farming!

Blueberries need acidic soil. If your soil isn't acidic, amending the soil with peat moss helps to lower the pH. If soil is alkaline, the blueberries will suffer a slow death over the next few years. I learned that the hard way.
