Q.
I recently purchased a bag of your Tui Citrus and Fruit mix. I was wondering if its suitable for growing blueberries in containers as I understand blueberries require an acidic soil pH. I have already used it for a blueberry plant in a large pot, half the container with the Citrus and Fruit mix, and the other half with standard potting mix. If the citrus mix isn't ideal, could you please recommend an alternative mix, or way to make the existing soil used more acidic.

- Tui Citrus and Fruit mix base ingredients contain peat moss which has acidic soil properties and is the perfect mix for your blueberries, you won't need to make any amendments to the one you have already planted.
- The other mix that would be suitable is Tui Strawberry mix, it is also suitable for berry and fruit trees and contains peat moss as part of the base ingredients, strawberries enjoy acid soil properties as well.
- You don't need to make any amendments, weekly liquid feeding with Tui Strawberry Superfood liquid fertiliser will help promote healthy growth and a bumper fruit crop.
