Blueberries

I'm growing about four blueberry bushes in pots and so far doing well.. the fruit is coming along nicely. I know I ought to feed the plants as they are in containers but wondered if there was an organic or at least more natural fertilizer for ericaceous plants other than the usual chemical feed?

RE: Blueberries

I have used Conifer leaves (needles) with some good results. They get the soil or compost in good condition for all plants that like acidic conditions. Applying as a two inch mulch seems best. Best wishes, Gerald.
