Fertilizing Blueberry Plants
Fertilizing is an excellent way to replenish the natural nutrients in your plant’s soil. We recommend a solution of Stark® Blueberry Special Fertilizer, which is specifically formulated for blueberries.
NOTE: This is part 6 in a series of 11 articles. For a complete background on how to grow blueberry plants, we recommend starting from the beginning.
Fertilizing Tips
- Excess fertilizer easily damages blueberries; allow for rain between applications.
- For new plants: wait until the first leaves have reached full size before fertilizing.
- Fertilize every 6 weeks (depending on rainfall) until mid-summer.
- For older plants: apply fertilizer when new growth begins in the spring.
