Improving Blueberry Flavor with Slow-Release Organic Fertilizers

Small, bland blueberries often need better nutrition. Apply ½ inch cottonseed meal in a 2-foot circle around each bush, or use Milorganite or Holly-tone per label. Water consistently from fruit set to harvest. Blueberries prefer slow, steady feeding over quick synthetics.

Acidic soil and organic matter enhance flavor and size.
