Blueberry, also known as Benedictine and black bean tree, is native to Heilongjiang, Inner Mongolia, Changbai Mountain and other areas in China, growing at an altitude of 900m to 2300m. Blueberry fruit is rich in anthocyanins, has a good health care effect, very popular, many friends will ask, how much is a blueberry seedling? Is it difficult to cultivate?

I. the price of blueberry seedlings

Blueberries are divided into two kinds: one is that the plant is relatively short, belonging to a low shrub, and its fruit particles are also relatively small, but are rich in anthocyanins; the second is artificially cultivated blueberries, which can grow to high 240cm, larger fruit and full pulp, which improves the sour edible taste of wild blueberries and is more conducive to the absorption of anthocyanins. The blueberries we buy on the market are generally the second kind, which was first cultivated in the United States more than a hundred years ago.

Although they are all blueberry seedlings, the price varies slightly according to the variety and size, but under normal circumstances, the price of blueberry seedlings is between 5 and 15 yuan. Specifically, the price of blueberry seedlings with a height of 30 centimeters is generally about 5 yuan, while those with a height of 70 centimeters is as high as 12 yuan. And the price will vary from region to region. Friends who choose blueberry seedlings still have to look at the price according to the specific local conditions, not generalize.

Second, the difficulty of cultivation

Blueberries have higher requirements for the environment, so orchard cultivation is relatively complex and needs fine management. When choosing an orchard, the orchard should be located in an area where there is no air and water pollution, convenient transportation, convenient water sources and electricity. It is also required to stay away from cities and places where people are relatively concentrated, away from roads and railways, and to prevent pollution of heavy metals (lead, mercury, etc.), sulfur dioxide, arsenic, fluoride and cyanide. In the process of blueberry seedling growth, attention should be paid to soil management to keep the soil loose and ventilated. Water management is also carried out to prevent excessive drought and waterlogging, although blueberry has strong drought resistance, but due to shallow roots, excessive drought will affect its growth, but too much water will also cause blueberry root rot.

However, if the pot is planted artificially, the coefficient of difficulty of cultivation is lower. To choose a highly permeable mud basin for planting, after planting in the basin, first do not bask in the sun indoors and put it in a ventilated place for a week. After a week, you can move to the balcony for normal maintenance. Blueberries like to get wet, especially when the weather is too hot in summer, they need enough water every day. But it must also be noted that stagnant water can not be produced in the basin, otherwise it will cause blueberry seedling root rot. Blueberries do not have high requirements for fertilizer, and there is only a certain amount of humus in the cultivated soil. Generally, potted blueberries ripen in 4-5 years.

Blueberry fruit has the functions of improving eyesight, enhancing self-immunity, anti-cancer, enhancing memory, anti-oxidation and anti-aging, while blueberry seedlings are not only cheap, but also the pot planting technology is not very difficult.
