Velvetleaf Blueberry requires indirect bright light and moderate temperatures. It thrives in environments with moderate humidity. Regular watering is necessary, but the soil should be allowed to dry out partially between waterings. The plant benefits from a cool winter dormancy period.収穫
Vaccinium myrtilloides, commonly known as the velvetleaf blueberry, is typically harvested in mid to late summer when the berries are fully ripe and have a deep blue color. Harvesting is usually done by hand, gently picking the berries to avoid damaging the plant. It is important to harvest in the morning when the berries are cool and firm. Ensure that the berries are dry to prevent mold and spoilage. Regularly check the plants as not all berries ripen at the same time.土壌
