High-yield blueberry planting technology

1. Variety selection

If you want to get a high yield of blueberries, it is best to choose varieties that can pollinate each other, such as Hokuriku, Northern Blue, Brigitta, etc.

2. Garden soil improvement

The best soil pH value for growing blueberries is between 4.2-5.5. After land preparation, organic fertilizer, sawdust, pine needles, etc. should be added to increase the organic matter content of the soil.

3. Planting

Blueberries can be planted in ridges in a north-south direction, with the ridge width controlled at around 30 cm and the row spacing at around 1-2 meters. Normal management can be carried out in the later stage.
