Thanks for another great comment! I disagree because climate zones are correlated and are a factor in developing soil formation. We can look at broad rock types such as limestone, shale, and silt and see they form under different climates, pressure, air, and water pressures. Limestone rock has weathering, erosion, and interaction with plants, all affected by temperature. I do feel it's an error and one I am very guilty of, that we compartmentalize our gardens instead of viewing them as a unit of many factors.
Great video! I'm a first timer with blueberries. I just moved to a good potential homestead with permaculture in my sights. I'm off to a pretty good start. I have 5 young bushes. 3 are patriots. Can't remember what the other ones are right now. I have a long row of big pines. I'm thinking I most likely have acidic soil in that area. I'll know soon. Keep making good videos!
I’m a first time gardener this year. It all started because my daughters asked if the seeds in a tomato could grow, we planted a slice of tomato and now we have 25 homemade whicking buckets doing well. I feel like I know what I’m doing… considering this, which of your books would you recommend more? I’ve watched so many videos on RUclips and yours are the most practical and helpful. Thank you for prioritizing education and not telling your watchers to go buy a bunch of stuff in order to be successful planters.
Thank you so much - your comments warm my heart! Yes, I'm a pretty strait forward person/teacher so I guess it shows! What a wonderful mom you are and gardening is such a great family activity ♥ Are you in Zone 6? Or 5 or 7? If so the Complete Guide to Vegetable Gardening is a good well rounded start (although something went wrong with my software and my brain and it published without page numbers) and the guide for growing fruit will be out soon 🤞with better formatting! 😜
@@foxruneec I’ll be sure to get it as well as I’m trigger shy on getting blueberry plants! If you ever run out of ideas, wicking buckets made gardening possible for me and it would be great to see you work your magic into a video on the topic!
@@kpmarine10 Well I just added that to the summer patio garden list. I have never done a Wicking Container so it should be a fun experiement and a future video on how it went! Thanks for the suggestion 😃
Thanks for your informative video. I have two blueberry bushes about 1.5 feet in 5 gallon containers. What do you suggest I do with them over the winter? I'm unsure if I should cut them back or bring them indoors. I'm in Pennsylvania, zone 6.
Can you put them against a building and bank straw around them? This would help insulate them. Or put them in an unheated garage or shed. Don't bring them inside when there is heat - that would confuse them :) Thanks for watching.
Love your videos - I just subscribed! I have my own channel too. I'm doing my best to learn the long lost art of being self sustainable. Thank you for the valuable information.
Put them out but 1. You will need to monitor and make sure they don't dry out. They may not have the root system yet to provide themselves with enough water. So keep moist. 2. If they get a bit droopy cover them with some shade cloth. Good luck and happy gardening!
Good video, with the exception of using zone 6 (for temperature) to correlate soil type (geology). One has nothing to do with the other.

Congratulations on moving to a homestead. I'm so glad the video was helpful. Yes, pines do like acidic soil too. Your pups are so cute!!
@@foxruneec Thank you!!
Excellent info! Thank you! I’ll be planting 2 blueberry plants in zone 6b (Indiana) 😊
Excellent! Spring is coming :)

Yes, I have a shed I could put them in. Thanks for your reply@@foxruneec

Thank you so much! Good for you!! I will check out your channel :)
Same and me too! 🙂
I just recieved new blueberry plants. Should they be potted first or can they be planted immediatly. Zone 6 in July.
So.... I should pot them first?
Put them out but 1. You will need to monitor and make sure they don't dry out. They may not have the root system yet to provide themselves with enough water. So keep moist. 2. If they get a bit droopy cover them with some shade cloth. Good luck and happy gardening!
Hello friend how are you।
I needed blue berry plants how much cost blue berry plants
This is an education channel. We don't sell plants. I suggest you go to your local plant store. Good luck.
