Blueberry soil - potted

rayonline_tm, Jan 9, 10:28pm
Hi all,

I got a new plant since the last one died - it got too dry it was a 50/50 peat moss and orchard mix. What soil so I use for the new one?

If I use standard potting mix what about the acidity that it prefers from what I read the acidic supplement shouldn't be used in potted plants.

Thanks.

A guy I know has heaps of fruiting blue berry plants, he puts mulched shredded pine tree around them to get the soil right.

There is a Phostrogen for Acid loving plants available that you mix with water. that would be safe. Mine are in normal potting mix.

Make sure you only ever use a slow release or a liquid fert in pots, never use a powdered variety , for any plants not just blues
