I’ve got 40 mature plants that need some attention. I know they need to be pruned back badly. What time of year do you do this and how far back do you cut? I searched online but the info was all over the place. They’re located in central AL in the Lake Martin area if geographic location is a factor. The blueberry patch was always my dad’s pet and I never paid much attention to the details while he was still alive. Just one of many questions I wish I could ask my old man.
Thanks in advance for helping me out

Pruning stimulates growth. The new growth is where next years berries will be This : cut out any dead canes / branches and cut to a height you can pick without getting on a ladder . I use a battery powered hedge trimmer.

The blueberry patch was always my dad’s pet and I never paid much attention to the details while he was still alive. Just one of many questions I wish I could ask my old man. This is my story exactly. It never occurred to me to ask. Towards the end, I was so focused on taking care of him. I can short list several things he had the answers to that didn’t occur to me until I was the caretaker of those things. There’s a lot of self imposed pressure not to screw things up.

High-yield ammonium sulfate and at some point during spring/summer a complete fertilizer
