This is such a helpful video! cutting back and getting everything ready for the season is something I seriously struggle with and makes me nervous. We read and hear about it, but seeing it in video form is really helpful. End of winter early spring garden instruction is so helpful, even if its not all beautiful and green, because it sets us all up for a great season ahead! without handicapping our plants before they get the chance to flourish that year. especially since like new and old growth cutting can make a difference! thank you for taking the time to make this type of video laura

This was such good information about blueberries! I got 2 top hat seedlings by mail 2 weeks ago. They were doing excellent at first but the instructions said to keep them in the shade. They are now having browning leaves and some leaves died and dropped off. I see yours are in full sun so think I'll do that too. I hope they survive and grow so I have an opportunity to prune next year. If you have fig trees it'd be great to have a pruning lesson on those too not to mention citrus trees. Thanks Laura.

Valerian think Valium lol It what the used to synthesize then produced fake product known as valium. The more you know. Also it was the Rockefellers' that got rid of ALL holistic medicines. I grow Blue Star blueberries here in central Cali they do well so much so I have to fight off the Blue Jays in order to harvest them they actually will come dwn in the mornings to see which ones are ripe! Is that a black eye I see? What kid hit you with what?

Be careful with the wild bergamot. I planted it a couple of years ago and it aggressively spread. Two years ago, I planted blueberries that I received from Willis Orchards. It was a four combo for southern gardens. They were bare root so their first year was in a pot. The heat and poor rainfall of last summer did in a couple of them. My chickens loved them. Bok Bok (my favorite girl) would jump up to get berries.

I need help. Just watched the blueberry pruning video. In there you talk about chill hours, which applies to fruiting trees and bushes. I am in zone 9a. (Winter 20F - 30F. Your winter is colder than mine, but we have about the same summer weather. My question is: Does non-fruiting trees need certain amount of chili hours, too? If not, how come I cant grow arborvitae in my zone?

I'm in the sourthern hemisphere, so the Northern Highbush grows best in the south, and the Southern Highbush grows best in the north. Rabbit Eye varieties are the recommended ones for my area by my favorite garden centre, so I have a couple of them which are currently fruiting. Will have to look back on this video when it gets into winter.

Do you prune blackberries the same way? Ive been growing blackberries now for nearly 3 years, Ive never pruned them, I should say, as of yet, theyre in a container, the first two years I had many blackberries, this past season not so much, they were very small, didnt take hold, they seemed to have like dried out? Thank You!

I pruned my blueberries last month. It was really hard because they were already showing blooms but I just hurried up and did it and tried not to think about the blooms I was cutting off! I havent fertilized yet which I need to do. When will you fertilize yours and do you use hollytone or something else?

We have my late grandmother's property and her row of blueberries. They haven't been pruned in AT LEAST 6 years. They are 8+feet tall and produce tons every year. So much so that, if the birds are helping themselves, I never notice. I kind of like that the wildlife has a place to forage here, though.
