I planted one main blueberry bush, then bought a couple of really small ones just for pollination purposes - but the small ones grew so well they are all the same size now!Matronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07705506930308472527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4411587390928773196.post-64529221285748945452009-05-08T22:08:00.000-05:002009-05-08T22:08:00.000-05:00Hi Tina-I really enjoy Jeff Poppen!

Six years does sound like a long time to wait!<br /><br />Hi Dan-I think it's a local TN program. He's a barefoot farmer with a farm somewhere in TN. Ooh, I'd love to taste some wild blueberries. I bet they are delicious.<br /><br />Hi Susie- Thanks! <br /><br />Dawn- I am not sure if he is on youtube or not. We've grown potatoes at my house before in the past. My dad says they are pretty easy, so maybe it depends on the variety of potatoes? And beears are no fun! I'm glad we don't have that kind of problem here.<br /><br />Hi Marnie-I'm sorry you're not able to grow blueberries! I do read that they are picky about the soil they grow in :-(<br /><br />Hi Lola, a half whiskey barrel sounds very interesting. You should blog about it sometime so I can see. It seems very interesting!<br /><br />Hi Raquel, I hope I get a good harvest too!DP Nguyenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13729511776841579464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4411587390928773196.post-21291165060577286542009-05-08T08:08:00.000-05:002009-05-08T08:08:00.000-05:00I haven't seen that show, I'll have to check it ou...I haven't seen that show, I'll have to check it out DP.

Blueberries are in plenty over here as I live next to the electrical power lines, have to compete with the bears though.Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00234495965199888943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4411587390928773196.post-30253187496520101242009-05-07T07:30:00.000-05:002009-05-07T07:30:00.000-05:00I've wanted to grow blueberries but just haven't. ...I've wanted to grow blueberries but just haven't.

Last year was the first year I really enjoyed the blueberries. They were slow to start. This year they are loaded. Be patient, they'll come.tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17415302577518111227noreply@blogger.com
