Never grown any berries except mulberries. They don’t do well in my part of the country so I never gave it a shot.

My man here if from Maine. He says when we find our new place that *he* is planting blueberries. He says he’ll dig a pit and haul in the soil for ‘em. LOL - if we get to that point I’ll keep you posted.

When you find your new place, plan on blue berries going in a cool spot....

There will be someplace, a gully or ? where it is a few degrees cooler.

In San Diego, for years, I bought flats of blackberries from a lady, whose father had planted them years before, he had cut a bank and they were in a canyon, on the shelf, where it was a few degrees cooler and they would grow.
