Has anyone tried these Fruitist blueberries?

My husband and I bought these blueberries from Smith’s Grocery store here in Las Vegas. They were a good price and looked like they would be good but when we tried them they tasted artificial. It doesn’t matter if the berry was soft, hard, small or big they all had this artificial taste. We buy blueberries a lot they are my husbands favorite. Usually taste can vary from sour to sweet but not these. They had the same taste all around. Does anyone know if the are fake blueberries? I looked up the website and all they had was info on their jumbo blueberries.

Frozen Soil?

Hi, I live in Northeast Ohio, zone 7a. It's winter here and I've just noticed today that the soil in my two potted blueberry bushes is frozen. How bad is it for them? I've tried researching this but can't find answers. Some places said that frozen soil helps insolate the roots but IDK.

Also my blueberries are highbush ones and they're in like 20in pots.

Advice

Hi. Should I plant my blueberries in pots to easier control the ph or can it go in the ground with other plants and just add something to make the soil acidic around it?

Bumps/spurs on blueberries?

Recent purchase and uncertain of what these bumps might be. Tried to seek the answer myself but found nothing definitive. Are these bumps a sign of concern? Fungus or possibly a defect in growth? Thank you for your time.

Pink lemonade. Blueberry plant. Any tips for a first timer or an expectancy till I get berries?

I’ve always wanted to grow my own blueberries this year I found this plant at a star nursery for abt 10 bucks. Not sure how long it’ll take to grow or how to care for it other than checking PH in the soil. I bought a PH tester and it’s currently at 6.0ph and I will get the stuff to make the soil more acidic when I’m off of work. Any tips or tricks would be appreciated! Not sure if this helps but my location is Las Vegas Nevada.

Blueberry Soil Question

So I am looking to get some blueberry bushes, but I want to plan ahead. I’m thinking something from Bushel and Berry, but open to suggestions. My question is how can I get the soil ready now so that they will take well to the soil? Last year I tried and it was lots of red leaves ups and downs, and once they finally took, they got washed away for Helena. So this year I am starting new and want to prep the soil early beforehand to make sure they are happy! Any suggestions?

Why do my blueberries taste spicy?

Hi there, I'm looking for the reason why my blueberries taste.. off.. They have small little bumps on a few on them (possibly galls of some sort?) but I'm not quite sure. The ones with these little bumps are also noticeably the ones that also have this spicy taste.
if anyone else has experience this or know the reason it would be much appreciated, thank you in advanced!!

First winter with my blueberries. Is it okay for them to bud like this or should I move them somewhere colder until spring?

Help! What do I do with these shoots?

My blueberry bush is flourishing - never looked so good, but 3 shoots have shot up much higher than the main bush. It hasn't produced any fruit this year. Summer time in Australia. Should I trim them down or leave them? Thanks for your help!

2 blueberries in the same pot

So, I just got my blueberries and heard you need to plant 2. Well, I put 2 in the same pot! They are sunshine blue vaccinium corymbosum. I have other pots around so: Should I devide them? Or are they okay to leave where they are?

What blueberries are most commonly sold in grocery stores?

Hello, I’m wondering this because I live in MA Z6A, and I want to plant a blueberry bush. I like the ones sold at stores, therefore I want to figure out what species that is so I can plant it. Also this species here seems interesting. Anyone have any experience with it? Thanks

Lowbush blueberries as a ground cover in a partially shaded woodland garden?

What do you guys think? It's pretty common to see them as an understory plant in natural settings, but haven't seen many recommendations for them in a woodland garden situation.
