Blueberries don't have a great root system and would greatly improve if you can

4.5 to 5.0. Hard to achieve.

Leaf mold I don't have. But I have friends in Myrtle Groove I can
probably get hold of some. What about some sulfer? Would you add
some to the mix?

Yes, you can add sulfur, but it will take a while for it to bring the pH down.
That's why the mychorriza helps the plant uptake fertilizer even in higher pH
conditions till the soil mellows. If you can get the soil prepared and into the
pot a while before you plant the plant, it will be better.
