Blueberries can be planted in China in Heilongjiang, Jilin, Liaoning, Shandong, Jiangsu, Anhui, Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangxi and other places. Blueberries are demanding on the soil environment, needing acidic sandy loam with PH 4.5-5.5, but any soil with ph below 7 can be improved through soil improvement to grow blueberries. Blueberries are not too demanding on climate, and most parts of the country have suitable varieties or planting patterns.
The main elements to consider when selecting soil for blueberries include: soil texture, pH, organic matter content, and water table. Suitable soil conditions for blueberry growth are: loose sandy loam with good drainage; soil pH 4.0-5.5, optimal soil pH 4.3-4.8; soil organic matter content of 8-12%, at least not less than 5%; the optimal soil water table is 40-60cm, and the soil is moist but not waterlogged.

Blueberry planting method
1, choose the land: choose the land as much as possible to choose the slope of the land is small, in addition to the blueberry root system is relatively shallow and very fine, so it is best not to be too tight, permeability should also be good, so as to be conducive to the development of the root system of the blueberry and the absorption of the soil, the soil should be chosen to the acidic soil.
2, planting: strawberry planting time in spring and fall, but the survival rate of fall planting is much higher than spring planting, spring planting time can only be early, can not be too late, different varieties of blueberries plant spacing is different, we can plant according to its corresponding plant spacing, if you use more varieties of mixed planting, you can greatly improve the results of the rate and the quality of blueberries.
3, fertilization: blueberries are mainly nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, the ratio of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium 1:1:1, prohibit the imposition of nitrate nitrogen fertilizer, and prohibit the imposition of ammonium chloride and other chlorine-containing elements of fertilizer.
4, irrigation: blueberry root distribution is relatively shallow, prefer wet, so irrigation is very important, irrigation can not use PH high water, to irrigate acidic water, 3-5 days irrigation once.
