Default Feeding blueberry plants

:I bought a blueberry Bluecrop earlier in the year and have planted it
: in a 50 cm pot. It seems to be producing some fruit, but do I need to
: feed it - if so, which feed should I use?


A high potash tomatoe feed should do the trick




No, definitely not tomato feed. Use an ericaceous fertiliser, the kind you
use on camellias, rhododendrons and azaleas.

Here's a few links to info on care of blueberries:
