    Did you make your hiller bedder? Looks like a great tool in developing the raised beds

    Really appreciate ya'lls videos. Great job so far! So how did your blueberry bushes do in their first year? Would you change anything about how you did this? What varieties did you plant?

      I really appreciate you supporting the channel! Well... I'm not sure, the deer have given our blueberries a fit eating on them, so I'm not sure how they could look if they had a chance to grow 🤔 the varieties are: climax, premier, powder blue, brightwell, and Columbus

    How are your blueberries doing? I tried a search of your videos but this seems to be the only one. I have cuttings started that I purchased online and they are doing good so far.

      The farm my blueberries were on was rented and it's growing houses now unfortunately. Best of luck on yours tho!

    Hello, i would like to know how your disc filter worked for you during the summer, I'm trying to decide if I should go with a disc filter or a sand filter...very interesting design would live to see it work

    • @CherryHillFarm
      @CherryHillFarm  4 года назад

      I would definitely recommend automatic disk filters over sand filters, much easier to maintain

    I am looking at doing at blueberry & blackberry pick. Do you recommend any certain blueberry varieties to grow for pick?

    • @CherryHillFarm
      @CherryHillFarm  Год назад

      I would do some research on what varieties are best suited for your area, find someone who grows them and taste test them. That's what we did to choose ours

    Hi !!! I`m like your video about blueberry planting. I have a question - you use a pine tree bark for mulch. Is this bark expensive? How much can cost this truck of pine bark? Can I use a pine tree of saw dust instead of pine tree bark?

    • @CherryHillFarm
      @CherryHillFarm  2 года назад +1

      I really have no idea, I would call your local mulch yard. I'm sure it's doubled in price since I did mine.

    I don't suppose you would have any video of that filter working would you? that looks like it might be the ticket for me, we like to water 10 acres at a time on drip with a 4-in line at the head, but we have a problem with silt would these filters work for that? sorry for all the questions

    Question: did you just disc the dirt first before bedding it or how did you prep it?

      I chisel plowed it, then disc, then bedded

      I would think so, the main thing with blueberries is they don't like too much water.

    what was the spacing that you used between the blueberry plants and the rows?

    • @CherryHillFarm
      @CherryHillFarm  4 года назад

      The rows are 10 ft apart (so it's easier to mow) and the plants are 5 ft apart in the row
