I've read about blackberry fertilizer
requirements. Most recommend somewhere around 200 lbs. of actual Nitrogen
per acre. I have 1/10 acre of berries, so I should put 20 lbs. It's
also recommended that the N be spread over the year with most of it before and
during bloom but tapering off as Fall approaches.
The Phosphorus in the bone meal really sounds like
a good idea to me. I'm going to try that as soon as I can find a good
source. Not sure what the Peat is supposed to do though. Anyone
know?
Yes, blackberries grow in the wild around here,
although not much. I don't have any other brambles. Cold isn't
usually a problem here, but heat might be. I've never heard of heat
causing problems though.
Thanks
