Have not been closely following thread.
FWIW Here on the Oregon coast blueberries do well.
The soil pH is about 5.
It is not recommended to add N.
Aluminum sulfate is added once a year
Heavy mulch is used.
Wood chips and sawdust.
Except stay away from cedar sawdust.
Drip irrigation during the summer
My best crops come from Elliott and Nelson.
They are late bearers so the birds have moved on by then.
The early bearers crop but the birds get most of them.
The early bearers also take longer for the plants to come into bearing.
If you can order large quantities of plants Fall Creek Nursery is the place 
to buy from.
