Bryce,
An identical event happens in raspberries. Beautiful berries starting to ripen when.......................suddenly, the stem dries, leaves turn brown and the berries stop ripening. A raspberry crown borer does it.
Could there be a blueberry crown borer too? Someone suggested root rot; if it is not root rot, check for a borer.

It suddenly died, mid-fruiting. The berries were just getting blue, and
over a matter of days the entire plant browned, dried out and seemingly
died. All the leaves are a leathery tan color, and on the plant are
little dehydrated blueberries. Its neighbor plant, also about 10 years
old, is going strong, and producing yummies. Both plants are in
planters, in fog belt of San Francisco CA, and have never really been
fertilized at all.
What could have befallen plant number 1, and is plant number 2 at risk?
