Is the climate in Huangshi, Hubei suitable for growing blueberries?
However, due to the changes of atmospheric circulation, topography and seasons, the climatic factors change greatly year by year, so severe weather such as late spring cold, heavy rain, strong wind and drought in summer and autumn occur from time to time.
Blueberries have special requirements for climate and soil, mainly in the following aspects; 1, requiring strong acid soil. The soil PH value of rabbit eye blueberry should be between 4.3 and 5.3, and the highest value should not exceed 5.5, otherwise it will affect its growth. 2. The soil organic matter content should be above 5%, and the groundwater level should be below1.2m. The soil is sticky, and the soil with high calcium content is not conducive to its growth. 3. Winter needs a certain cold temperature, but it can't be too cold. Generally, it is required that the freezing day in winter is about 20 days; Therefore, Guangdong, Northeast China and other places are not suitable for their growth because the winter climate is too hot or too cold. 4. It is a shallow-rooted plant, and the newly planted seedlings are not drought-tolerant. Productive planting should have good irrigation conditions. From the analysis of the above requirements, rabbit eye series blueberries can be planted in the plots with heavy soil acidity in our city. However, its growth habits and adaptability have not been fully mastered, so at present it can only be a small number of introduction experiments.
I hope I can help you.
