Rec ommended early season varieties include Austin, Brightwell, Climax, Premier, and Woodard. Mid-season varieties include Bluebelle, Brite- blue, Chaucer, Powder- blue, and Tifblue. Late season varieties include Baldwin, Centurion, Choice, and Delite. More than one variety should be planted for proper pollination. Blueberries need at least a half day of sun each day. They grow best in a soil pH of 4.0 to 5.3. Sulfur can be added to the soil to adjust pH. Rabbiteye blueberries should be spaced six feet apart in the row. The rows should be 12 feet apart. Mix gener ous amounts of peat moss or milled pine bark into each planting hole. Prune the plant back by 1/3 to !4. Remove any flowers or fruit that develops during the first year. Properly managed, blueberry bushes will produce some fruit the second or third year after transplanting. A bush may yield as much as two gallons by the Green, Mikayla Guinn, Noah Jones, Sufyan Khan, Ethan King, Alex Klughart, Khushi Kunwar, Wyatt Lane, Eli Ledford, Kinsley Luckie, Walker Markwell, Macey Maxwell, Kenzi Milner, Alaiyah Moore, Victoria Perry, Embrie Claire Pitts, Cal Powell, Olivia Prince, Ryleigh Ramsey, Mariah Shead, Clay Shiver, Riley Sifford, Sagan Singh, Aryana Taylor, Raisy Tello, Ariella Thomas, Elise Thompson, Lauren Trot ter, Johnny Vanderwalt, Myra Watzlowick Honor Roll (all grades 85 and up) Brooklyn Adiano, Sedra Alghazi, Hunter Ashton, Maleah Bat ten, Brett Battles, Bo Beavers, Ethan Black, Cheyenne Boggs, Declan Bullington, Alivia Bush, Semaj Calhoun, Ga- briella Carballo, Levi Copeland, A’nala Covin, Jasmine Dice, Clayton Fleming, Keaton Fowler, Caleb Foster, Kipton Fra zier, Hudson Gresham, Lainey Griffin, Layten Guarnieri, Cole Johnson, Sarah Kersey, Noah Lad- son, Anna Le Bleu, Ben Oliver, Kinsey Osborne, sixth year.
