Instrucciones de cuidado
Lowbush blueberries require bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. They prefer moderate temperatures and high humidity. Water the plant regularly, allowing the soil to dry out partially between waterings. Ensure the plant is kept in a well-ventilated area.Cosecha
Vaccinium angustifolium, commonly known as lowbush blueberry, is typically harvested in late summer, around August. The berries should be fully ripe, which is indicated by a deep blue color and a slight softness to the touch. Harvesting is usually done by hand or with the aid of berry rakes. It is important to handle the berries gently to avoid bruising. After harvesting, the berries should be sorted to remove any debris or unripe fruit. They can be stored in a cool, dry place or refrigerated to extend their shelf life.Suelo
Vaccinium angustifolium prefers sandy, well-draining soil with a low pH. The soil should be kept moderately moist but not waterlogged. Adding organic matter can improve soil structure and nutrient content.Fertilizante
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize the plant in early spring and again in late summer to support growth and fruit production.Trasplante

Propagate lowbush blueberries through softwood cuttings taken in early summer or by division in early spring. Ensure cuttings are kept in a humid environment until roots develop.Poda
Prune the plant in late winter or early spring to remove dead or weak branches and to encourage new growth. Regular pruning helps maintain the plant's shape and promotes better fruit production.Toxicidad
Vaccinium angustifolium is not toxic to pets or humans. The berries are edible and commonly used in various culinary applications.Adicional
