I dunno if frost got ours while the plants were in bloom or what>
Blueberries in the forest can be like waves in the ocean, sometimes they aren't in the same spot so you have to search around to find them.
That's the nice thing about the forest though, the varried terrain and timber cover offers so many combinations in elevation, ground moisture and sun exposure. Usually there is a sweet spot in the countless combinations that works best for a given year.
Sometimes you have to look for elevations that may have escaped a frost that killed most berry plant flowers before they could fruit. Sometimes it's just a moisture issue and you have to look in lower (wetter) areas, sometimes shade, sometimes open and direct sunlight is the ticket.
There is usually a combination that works. The plants themselves cover a great deal of area in the forest so last years dud plants might be this year's bumper crop plants.
That's my story and I'm stickin too it.
(maybe I just like trail riding and hunting for them)
