    A blueberry with iron deficiency has yellowing leaves with dark green veins, the new growth will be affected by this first.
    Blueberries are unable to use the iron in soil when the soil pH is too high. Blueberries like their soil pH to be between 5.2 and 4.0 with the optimum being 4.5 to 4.8. Another problem that can cause iron chlorosis is too much water, this can happen with wet springs or irrigation that is set to water amounts that appropriate for the summer heat but not a cool spring.

    I know that this is an old question, but this mushroom can be identified as a Coprinopsis. They are not considered edible, nor harmful to the plant.

    Those are mushrooms, the fruiting body of a fungus that is growing on the wood chips mulch. I don't know the identity of that particular mushroom, but don't eat it unless you find out specifically what it is and if it is toxic or not.

    If the foliage was not sprayed, or green stems/canes and you're sure it was RoundUP then the herbicide will not have entered the plant tissues. A sure way to tell is if the plant does not have any browning leaves in a couple of weeks then it has not been contaminated. Wash your fruit and enjoy.

    How about just head them back to half of the height and shape them to be more manageable? Drastic cutting to the ground now during summer growing season is risky. If you can wait until winter dormancy then you can prune more extremely and leave selected canes (stems) to regrow the next season.
