I have several blueberry bushes and am going to add several more this
spring. I have a ton of natural leaf compost from our yard leaves and can add
some peat moss also for organic matter and to help bring ph down. The soil
is rich, but too acid--about 6.5 to 6.8 (probably due to adding a lot of
horse manure mixed with horse urine. I've had the soil tested and it is
very rich, but not acid enough for blueberries. Other plants due
well.) The leaf compost is from maple and oak leaves. It is well
composted.
Which would be better to add to my soil for organic matter and to bring the
ph down into the proper range for blueberries? Peatmoss or leaf
compost? Or both? Possibly some sand, also? THe blueberries I
have now are doing fair, but not fantastic. I am adding some sulfur also
the bring the ph down.
