Do you love juicy, sweet, just-picked blueberries from your own bushes? Not sure how to keep them performing at their best? Join WSU Extension Clark County Master Gardeners for a workshop on blueberry pruning. We’ll view a couple of short videos on blueberry pruning basics: when to prune, choosing which canes to cut, and where to cut them. We’ll discuss tools, garden sanitation, and how pruning is part of a sustainable and organic approach to blueberry plant care. Presenters will also cover the basics on plant nutrition and discuss some of the common pests and diseases. This webinar is put on in collaboration with Clark County Public Health - Solid Waste Outreach.

Thanks so much for this information! Currently I'm learning how to work on my family's blueberry farm and this is really helpful education.

Good, very usable information. I have found (accidently) that when catnip is allowed to grow around my field/yard the jays, robins and especially the starlings, quit coming around (but see more Chickadees and Towhees)

blueberries grow great in containers, even Northern highbush, I have massive Northern highbush plants in containers myself and the ground.

what kind of netting can I use to protect my berries. I have used just about every type and those catbirds peck holes in every type of netting. squirrels chew holes. I don't know of any netting that will stop them.

North Carolina has a couple good ones. Both are by Bill Kline. Great visual aids & precise in verbal instruction.

Would it be possible to get a file of your slides for printing and adding to my personal garden workbook? We have several newly potted blueberry bushes and want to take good care of them. Thank you for such a wonderful educational video!
