Built for Blueberry Bushes

Blueberries are moderate feeders that respond well to balanced NPK. 10-10-10 supports flower bud development, berry sizing, and new cane growth without overfeeding.

📅

Once Per Season — Early Spring

Apply before bud break in early spring. One application is all blueberries need — the balanced formula releases through bloom, fruit set, and harvest.

📏

Simple Per-Bush Rate

1 cup for young bushes, 2 cups for established plants. Broadcast at the drip line and let rain or irrigation carry nutrients to the root zone.

📦

6–11 Bushes Per Bag

One 5 lb bag feeds 6 large established bushes or up to 11 younger plants. Scale up with 10 or 20 lb bags for larger plantings.

🌿

Supports New Cane Growth

Balanced nitrogen fuels the new fruiting canes that produce next year's berries. Healthy cane renewal is the key to long-term blueberry productivity.

⚠️

Add Sulfur Separately for pH

Blueberries need acidic soil (pH 4.5–5.5). This fertilizer provides NPK — apply elemental sulfur or ammonium sulfate separately if your soil pH is above 5.5.

All Blueberry Types

Highbush, half-high, lowbush, rabbiteye — every blueberry variety thrives on balanced feeding. Works in rows, backyard bushes, and container plantings.
