A man in Iowa with alkaline soil found that if he just added peat to the soil, the pH soon went back up and the blueberries did poorly. He discovered that if he sank a barrier, such as a plastic garbage can with the bottom removed, and mixed peat with the soil in the can, that the blueberries did fine. WIth the barrier in place, alkalinity from the adjoining soil was unable to leach over and raise the pH of the treated area. He had been successful this way for several years before he passed on.
