McGee -- Welcome to ATP !

That's a good question... do you have the same soil type in your woods as where you find the blueberries? The ones here seem to grow in sandy, jack-pine type areas (and unfortunately I live in a cedar swamp... ) I planted 5 blueberry bushes last year that aren't exactly thriving (yet, at least) despite my efforts at amending the soil to make it more acid. If you give it a try I'd be very interesting in hearing about your results!
