This review is from: Grow the Best Blueberries: Storey's Country Wisdom Bulletin A-89 (Country Wisdom Bulletins, Vol. a-89) (Paperback)
This is a most complete and easy to understand manual on how to grow blueberries. It is uncomplicated and the illustrations are easy to follow. Best I have found.

OK for beginners, needs to be revised,
By KJM B in Sac (Sacramento, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Grow the Best Blueberries: Storey's Country Wisdom Bulletin A-89 (Country Wisdom Bulletins, Vol. a-89) (Paperback)
This is an OK read for a garden novice, it is easy to read and has decent drawings for illustrations. It is also dated (26 years old) which is particularly noticeable in the sections about mulches, fertilizers and pesticides. There is not enough information for backyard growers with limited space, and if you prefer to practice integrated pest management or organic gardening, you will not find a lot of information or encouragement here.After more than a quarter of a century, this booklet ought to be revised.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Grow the Best Blueberries: Storey's Country Wisdom Bulletin A-89 (Country Wisdom Bulletins, Vol. a-89) (Paperback)
The information was very basic and not complete. It's OK for the novice blueberry grower but if you have been growing blueberries this book won't be terribly useful.
