Planting Blueberries
in Fruit & veg
I'm just about to plant three Blueberries into pots. Do I gradually go up in size of pots or can they go into the larger pot the pots they came in are approx 3 inch. We are on dark grey clay so I don't want then in the soil also I have built a fruit cage with paving slabs to stand all the tubs containing all my other fruit.

I'm putting mine a a fruit cage this year - they are too good good for the birds!
Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
I felt the planter was too deep though, so quite a bit of overlap. Garlic in there too.
They reach full size at around 5 years old by which time they can do with an 80l pot but I've not gone up to 80l yet... 60 works. I figure better to buy another plant than spend £20 on such a big pot and compost.
Dovefromabove I was thinking I might take cuttings in a couple of years once these have got their feet down well but wasn't sure if you could and was going to ask on here about it. You saved me posting a question on here late. Thanks both for the advice.
