Mmmm. I have two Blueberry Bushes, planted in tubs of about 18" of ericaceous compost, and they both today had about half a handful each of woodash from our woodburning stove, sprinkled on the top of the soil, washed in with rainwater (by me).
One is Bluecrop, the other is Earliblue, and they are 'next to each other' to aid bee activity.
With other fruits (Redcurrants, Blackcurrants, Rasperries, Gooseberries) should I just sprinkle the dry woodash on them and water it in as well? But how much should I sprinkle around each plant for maximum benefit?
Obviously, the bees are very active right now and it's an important time. |
