How Do You Prune Blueberry Bushes.

Question

I already cut away dry dead tips but wonder whether I should be doing something else. I repotted the bushes 2 years ago and each spring rake away the soil at the top and replace it.
Many thanks.

Answer 1

Yes, you prune out two of the oldest canes each winter, as well as any dead wood and nonproductive wood. Here is a good video produced by the University of Maine.
