How often should blueberries be watered?

Blueberries are plants that like water, especially in the summer when the wind is very strong. You can water them once in the morning and evening. If there is no appropriate rainfall, water them once every morning.

The correct way to water blueberries

1. When blueberries are about to bear fruit and before they are fully mature, the water supply must be reduced appropriately. After harvesting, the water supply can be restored to promote growth. In autumn, the water supply also needs to be reduced appropriately so that the plants can enter a dormant period in time.

2. It is important to water blueberries in time. You need to pay attention to the water quality when watering blueberries. Because deep well water usually contains high levels of trace elements and cannot be used for a long time, you can use sulfuric acid to mix the deep well water before watering.

Overwatering blueberries

If you water blueberries too much and too frequently, the soil will be oversaturated with water for a long time, the air permeability will deteriorate, the oxygen content will be insufficient, the root respiration will be blocked, and the absorption function will deteriorate. When the lack of oxygen is severe, the roots will die and rot, and without the supply of water and nutrients, the entire plant will gradually die.

If you find that the blueberries are watered too much, you should stop watering in time and improve the drainage of the potting soil to allow the moisture in the soil to be drained out as quickly as possible. Also pay attention to drying the soil as soon as possible, reducing humidity, and avoiding the leaves from getting wet frequently. The soil should not be damp frequently, and there should be no accumulation of water.
