Great info, would love to see some more close up shots as you trim. Thanks for the video.
Great idea! I will see if I can get some filmed if the crew is still pruning some of our fields.
Solid Video.. Thanks..
Hi neighbor! (We live near Petrich’s 😊)
Was out trying to prune my blueberries last week and found myself forgetting all the tips you gave me last spring when I picked up bushes from you 🤦🏼♀️. This video was very helpful, thanks!
Wonderful! Feel free to always email us at hello@hoffmanfarmsstore.com for extra help.
Bushes? Wtf I’m here for the busy
We appreciate your comic relief :) I can't believe I missed that error.
how do you keep the birds from eating your crop? I have a small patch (8 bushes) and if I don't cover them, the birds will get every berry. I live in VA.
Thanks for the video! I have two dukes and a legacy and would love tips on how to prune the legacy.
Great suggestion! We will post a video about this soon with tips on how to prune a legacy plant.
Sorry for the delay! Here is the video for you with some tips. We also are happy to email back and forth if you have more questions. ua-cam.com/video/KFf9b-Oy1YQ/v-deo.html

Wonderful! Reach out if you need any other help.
Hey there! Hopefully you guys still see this: I'm growing in the Seattle Washington area and my four blueberry bushes are on the Southside of my house so they get all the sun. One of them is a wild blueberry bush I found in a stump on our property and transplanted. The other three are I believe a liberty or a legacy, a pink lemonade blueberry, and I can't remember what the other one is. Last year only the wild bush fruited and the other three only gave me leaves. I made sure to fertilize in spring with an acid fertilizer from down to earth fertilizers. They always had water as I had a soaker hose under wood chip mulch. What can I do to increase the odds of getting fruit? Anything maybe I did wrong or should be doing?
We are always happy to help. Jayson, who is pruning in the video you watched had a few tips for you. Fruiting issues starts with pruning and how the bush is managed throughout the winter. Blueberries set the fruit buds in the late summer and fall of the previous year. Putting on fertilizer too late into the summer can make the plant not set fruit for the following year as the plant wants to grow instead of set the buds. Be careful to not over fertilize and to not over prune and remove the fruiting buds in the winter. There is resources at WSU and OSU for fertilizer rates by variety. They give out recommendations that is in line with what commercial growers even use. If you have more questions or would like more detailed help please email us at hello@hoffmanfarmsstore.com and we would be happy to help more.
I have a group of blue berry bushes that have grown huge plants, almost tree like. Could I use a chain saw and cut them back to waist high without killing them?
What is the black mulch on top of the blueberry bushes
We make our own compact on the farm that we put on all our blueberries. It’s a mix of yard debris and leaves.
nice video sir please make a video how to prepare soil for blueberry farm
Thank you for the suggestion, we can totally talk about how we prepare the soil to plant berries and the mulch we use when we plant.
What soil do you use and do you use it every year?
@@rockyal5306 we use a homemade compact that we make on the farm. It’s a mix of yard debris and leaves. Yes, we use it every year on the blueberries.
Hi whats your best producing northern high bush? mine are duke and Elliot, cheers

Our southern high bush varieties do not drop their leaves, but if it gets cold enough they will drop some of their leaves. If you want to talk more about the varieties you have and questions email us at hello@hoffmanfarmsstore.com
why blurry the bushes, we can't see what's going on :(
We had a little trouble with our camera during this video. We are doing another video of pruning our legacy plants and will post that soon. Thank you for your understanding.
25 percent of the plant (the oldest part) should be cut out every year. Gives a new plant t every 4 years..
Yes, that is what we recommend on established blueberries. We like to see a healthy amount of new shoots and few old hard wood shoots on a plant. That gives the best possibility for yield output. Thank you for watching.
I guess you don’t have problem with birds eating your berries, I did not see any nets…
Birds are sadly a huge problem, we loose fruit each year to them but try to use less invasive tactics. For example we use predator noise speakers to deter the birds in our fields. They help, but it’s still something we fight each season.
