When planting, I always use my wheelbarrow to mix my fill soil -- it gives you more room to work it together, and you can wheel it right up to the planting hole and easily dump any extra after you shovel it out around the plant.
When it comes to pruning blueberry, I've looked at all the videos. In addition to those branch described, should I also prune any branches that do not produce berries this season? I can simply mark them with a loose tie of cotton yarn and remove them when it's time.
If that pine straw is a permanent bedding and it has rotted any, that soil is already acidic. I use pine straw in my composting for growing strawberries as well. Mixing the compost with pine straw, peat moss and decaying pine limbs makes perfect soil for most plants requiring acidic soil
That's DIRT!! There's no DIRT in GA!! I live in NW GA and all I have is rock and clay. We need a gas-powered auger to plant ANYTHING!!! I'm so jealous!!! =]
Bees.N. Weeds. yes. we just moved here from Ohio and my hubby loves to garden and we have discovered we have clay and sand!!! need to implrt the dirt lol
would have liked this if it were not for the base, rhetorical political ad that introduced it. If you are going to include political ads of any leaning, make it evidenced and fact based, not reactionary and fear mongering.

I just love Walter! Best advice for gardening (especially here in GA) I’ve found!
Peat moss is perfect. You can also use things like pine bark mulch, and a soil acidifier to get good acidic conditions.

Although pine straw is acidic, by the time it decomposes it becomes a neutral pH, so unfortunately pine straw will not acidify the soil.
I love Blueberrys,thanks for the video!
thanks for the information!
Great video, thank you!

Say what?! The stuff he dug up from the ground was clearly what's considered red clay, just dry. ha
