Blueberries

May 2022

We have blueberries growing! In order to protect them from birds, we built cages around them. We are very hopeful to have our first little blueberry harvest this year!





    
    On May 30, 2021 we put in our first blueberry bush. We have been advised to get three different types of Rabbiteye bushes for the best pollination and production. After we get our soil test results, we will plant more bushes.

 I don't know why 7 out of the 8 tomatoes I planted did not grow well, and one is doing great... about 5 times taller than the pitiful ones. They had some brown withered leaves, but got the same amount of water and sun as the healthy one, which is a Celebrity. Seriously, I planted 4 Celebrity and 4 Homestead varieties. Oh, and my one Little Napoli tomato plant which is also doing well.. the first one to have green tomatoes appearing.  I checked with my advisor, Matthew, and he said they might have a virus. Apparently those varieties are both heirloom strains, and are more disease prone than hybrids. I decided to take them all out, RIP, and try some hybrids instead.  I planted another Little Napoli, a Best Boy, and a Steller Slicer.
