About 25 years ago, I planted 2 blueberry bushes in our yard. I simply said to them that they were on their own, and if they grew, they grew and if they died, they died. Those jokers took off like crazy! We built a chicken wire and 2x4 cage around them, because the birds were having a party eating our berries. Those bushes need to be trimmed every other year, and just those 2 bushes give us anywhere form 10-15 gallons of berries each year! I don't even remember the names of them, but the only thing we have ever "fed" them is mulch. I have never added fertilizer or acid of any kind, and they keep exploding with berries every year. We are so blessed.
In my experience, if any type of berry likes its location, it will take over with no help from you. It might try to evict you by taking over the yard while you sleep.
Our blueberry bushes are just starting to blossom out. It's always exciting to see things awaken. Our Belle of Georgia peach tree is bursting with the most beautiful soft pink blossoms.
It's going to be exciting to watch your orchard come together. I do hope you bring us along as you plant each row and let us watch it grow. Don't forget harvesting and preserving. There will be so much to learn here. ❤
Strawberries make good ground cover under asparagus. they keep the weeds down and the asparagus shades them in the heat of summer when they get crispy. Glad to see Stephan Sobkowiak commented. He uses weed barrier under his orchard trees and does tuck the edges.
Having laid miles of mulch mostly with a small plow, there are a few points that come to mind. Lay mulch tight, have the least amount of seams possible (wind will eventually get under the seams as wood chips decompose), get your drip line under the mulch, lay mulch along the bed rather than across (you could prune heavily before laying mulch, unrolll a length, bury or pin one side the figure out where to make the hole). End result: it will dramatically lower your maintenance but make it hard to add organic matter under. When needing to repair pulled up mulch we used a square spade that we dull and tucked it in as you show.
Todd that looks amazing! So neat and tidy. I loved your edger tool also. I just ordered one from Amazon as I have lots of uses for that. Great job guys!
if you did not i would put staples on all the seams -- living traditions just did a video on what the wind and sun can do if it gets under your seams!! it was a good video worth the watch i think!! :)
Great job, you guys are awesome! I’ve only have one small blueberry plant but this video has inspired me to add a lot more and do it the right way, thank you again. Love you guys good luck with the garden this year and the new orchard.
If you go back and look at that photo you posted from the big orchards, they are using two pieces of fabric. They cut a wedge shape out for each bush and tuck in around it. The second piece also has a wedge, but it comes in from the other side, so there is an overlap. That might be an easier way of doing it. Plus, genius idea using the torch to cut the fabric! ETA - the machine is called a mulch layer. They even make horse-drawn versions for Amish farmers.
I have never seen anyone tuck thier weed faberic in the ground!!! That one is new to me!!! It looks like it worked for you!!! I used the prgs like you guys did around the holes!!! Thank you for sharing!!! I really appreciated it!!! God Bless Us All!!!
Nice! I’m sharing this with my husband, we just added 4 more blueberry bushes to our row, and this looks amazing! Also, I started 12 crowns of asparagus (I think it’s called Martha Washington) last year. It has all taken off and we have asparagus coming up this year. I read it’s best not to harvest for a couple years to let it get established.
When checking your soil pH it’s recommended to use distilled water which has a neutral pH so as to not skew the results. Otherwise thanks for sharing your skills - my wife and I enjoy your channel!
Last season, the japanese beetles ate all of my leaves and flowers from my blueberries and left them bare, this year I might have to cover them with netting.
@@karmenchristensen9845 We’ve had robins most of the winter. This has been a really mild winter for us. Now it has turned cold again. In February we had highs in the 50s. I was just saying to my husband, those poor redwing blackbirds are probably rethinking their decision to come up so soon, lol.
The machine has a part that digs a narrow trench. The soil naturally goes to the top side of the trench. Another part of the machine , as it unrolls the plastic edge into the trench and then an other part of the machine drags along and drags the soil into the trench, the soil that was deposited on the edge of the trench. So the trench, fabric, and soil create a tucked in look.
Thanks for a great gardening tip. I have lots of fabric to put down and am definitely going to try that method. I've just ordered an edger for the purpose! Thanks again.
@that 1870shomestead ... I like that technique of forcing the weed fabric into the ground! Living Traditions Homestead made an informational episode just last week about using weed fabric including which brand was the best in their opinion...box stores did not make the cut!
I think you have come up with a first, but it looks amazing. We found a gadget called Staple Ease. It's a wonderful back saver. A little costly but I saved up, and it's definitely worth it. It works with pretty much and length staples. I get metal hangers from the meat market and cut them to make two long staples. Then I staple the outside inward. It holds well. The stubborn weeds find their way through the staple holes, but they're usually easy to pull. If I were just doing rows, I like the edger idea better, because no staple holes.
I have never tucked weed fabric in like that, but it looks like a great idea. We get a lot of wind. It seems this would work better than just staples. Happy gardening.
I ordered some blueberry plants and considered placing them in a raised bed container surrounded by the strawberry plants. This is a great method for in ground.
There are landscape staples that are rounded U shapes or there are long landscape stakes that you can use with or without a gasket that can attach your fabric to the ground
This was really interesting. Blueberries are a favorite snack here in our home, more so than even strawberries and we’re crazy about strawberries. We’re going to put down weed cloth on our garden. It just too much weeding and we have a very small space. We’ve spent countless hour pulling. Great idea. I want to plant a row of blueberries on our property next year I’m going to follow your advice and prep the bed and put weed cloth down before planting the blueberries. Thank you
The fabric looks fantastic!! I have only used the staples, but this is a great method. I will be trying it in combination with the staples due to our wind. Be well!
Wow. Very nicely done. Your blueberries look delicious. The taste test results by grading would be fabulous. Last season was sweetness a 7. Tart 5. etc. This year ???? Production last year to this year. Hope you film when you apply the sulfur, I think you said sulfur. lol
The issue that I have with you doing the pH and using water I know that the pH of water is 7.0 usually I wonder if that affects your reading because it waters down what the pH level would be I wonder if you couldn’t lay that strip on just the regular soiland see if it’s damp enough from being outside in the winter to truly get the accurate reading
Loved this!! it looks very professional! GOOD JOB you guys! I am hoping my blueberry bushes made it this winter, but I had two rabbits eat them to the ground last fall. They had JUST been planted in the Spring & were gifts 😢 Do you guys have wild rabbits? Our big old BELOVED farm dog, that kept critters at bay, decided he wanted to come in the house 2 years ago at 10 yrs old (we had just lost our other big old BELOVED farm dog 😭 to old age & they had been buddy’s since this guy was a pup) He is now 12 and this is the first time we haven’t had another outside dog to teach a new pup, should we get one, the ropes out there!
Johnson grass is my bighest enemy after growing hemp in ohio for a few years. We had rolls covering the rows but it wasnt real thick so the deer poked a bunch of holes in it. Increased thickness meant more money and we had 3000 plants so it was too expensive.
Very interesting. I planted 7 plants last year and dedicated myself to make them grow! I have had a couple plants that just survived, never thrived....so now I will get to see how they survived our winter...it was super mild so they should have made it. Yeah I hear ya on the weed issue, but I just can't bring myself to use that fabric yet....🤔🥴 I know people use it all the time....but I just don't care for it. But I totally understand why u r using it!
Glad you are Gardening again this year. My question is, are your wood chips hardwood or soft? I acquired a truck load of chips this last summer but they are spruce and pine, Was hoping for hardwood. Would the spruce and pine be okay on blue berries and ect.?
You could, but you would end up being sorry you did it. Dust and soil blow onto the fabric, along with weed seeds and they will grow down through the fabric. You need to keep the fabric pretty clean and hole free if you don’t want weeds growing into it.
Could your fertilizer be the culprit for the "weeds"? They could be cotton plants coming up. It is seeds that are ground, but some could probably survive and be viable seeds.
If you are getting blueberries (obviously you are lol) and they taste good I would just test your soil and put it in you book and then if they seem to be lacking in the future you have a base line for what YOUR plants clearly like. Dont change what is clearly working I would just use what you have now as a baseline to keep them at. Just because Fred down the road needs his berries at a certain PH doesnt mean you do. You guys have a great base cause I saw what you harvested last year. Keep shooting for the level you have. Scratch that I just the results lol I would def do the sulfur and test again
Need at least 6” staples and overlap about 6” is what I’m seeing and hearing for flat surface but it looks like your edger is working in your situation
I am not a big fan of landscape fabric, there are lots of weeds with agressive roots that are hard to fight, but with covering with something solid is not a long term solution, becuase it will finally find the way on the sun, and you have hard time gettng all the roots out, because they are under the fabric. I found out that cardboard and woodchips slow down the weeds, but you need to pull them out anyway, they are just weaker so it is easier. More roots you are able to pull out the longer it takes to regrow.
Wanted to inquire about something that is way off topic from this specific video but was featured in a video you did a couple of years ago. That is the cane that you had purchased off of Etsy and planted for a back scape for your son's wedding. How did it grow for y'all? Did it get tall/thick? We are wanting to use it for a "wall/fence" between us and our neighbors. Would you recommend it? Thanks for any info you could give us. Have a blessed day.
You're not going to put fabric around your strawberries, are you? If so, the runners won't be able to set roots, and your original plants will quit producing in a couple of years.
@@1870s do you know what variety you have? Any that I've grown, have fizzled out after just two or three years. Maybe I need to find a different variety!
Todd there is a tool to lay fabric, but it is large scale. TH-cam Veggie Boys. Farm lays biodegradable sheet for corn, pretty slick. Look under their corn planting last year to see it in action. Envy your berry patch! Best of luck for good harvest this year.

I, last spring, had my landscape fabric that was around my perrenials ripped out . Plants were spreading under it and through it !
Living traditions Homestead just did a video yesterday all about how they use landscape fabric and how they attach it

You might want to check out Living Traditions last video on landscape mistakes.
Great video 🎉🎉. We use pine needs for adding acid to our soil now you guys got me thinking that we should do pH test on our blueberries. Thank you.😊
Thank you, that was so informative!
I ordered some blueberry plants and considered placing them in a raised bed container surrounded by the strawberry plants. This is a great method for in ground.
Todd mentioned adding sulfur for the berry bushes. I used peatmoss on mine
Peat moss would acidify the soil, but it doesn’t have any nutrients in it.
exactly, there test showed they have alkaline soil
The nutrients are in the acid fertilizer they added to the blueberries
you might do your asperagus in raised beds to help with the weeds
There are landscape staples that are rounded U shapes or there are long landscape stakes that you can use with or without a gasket that can attach your fabric to the ground
Ask your friend Becky at Acre homesteading, she did her garden right after it was finished
living traditions suggested 6 inch landscape staples to
hold the fabric down and use a lot of them
Maybe edge the blueberry bed with rr ties and put wood chip on top?
Too much poison in them for my liking

We have wild black caps, but personally I (Rachel) not a big fan of seedy fruit
I am not a big fan of landscape fabric, there are lots of weeds with agressive roots that are hard to fight, but with covering with something solid is not a long term solution, becuase it will finally find the way on the sun, and you have hard time gettng all the roots out, because they are under the fabric.
