Hey all. I just started this week with three blueberry plants (premier rabbiteye from a nursery, a powder blue and premier rabbit from Home Depot), a buttercrunch lettuce (from Home Depot), and chives and sweet mint from (Ace Hardware). I have repotted the herbs and lettuce in potting soil and mushroom compost, and the blubes have varying mixes because I was told a lot and read about a lot of different ways to do soil mixes so. Organic potting soil, pine bark mulch and mini-nuggets, Dr. Earth Acid Lovers fertilizer, and Soil Acidifier. I mention this because each blueberry pot has different mixes to see what does well and what didn't work. I have these mixes noted for later. I named the blubes Donna (tall powder blue rabbiteye in the white pot), Premmie (small premier rabbiteye in the other white pot), and Prima (the tall premier rabbiteye in the black pot). The lettuce is Lotta and the chives and mint are Chloe and Maeve, respectively. My concerns are with Premmie, Prima and Lotta. Premmie has 1/4 of its small mass drooping and soft-leaved. Prima did have a lot of red on its leaves but has thusly recovered (probably because of stresses of new location, change in soil, and weather). Prima has a section of browning leaves that I'm mildly concerned about. The plant tag was there until today (had about 4 days) and I cut it off, so I'm unsure if that's related. Lotta has gone between wilting/drooping and soft leaves to normal and firmish leaves, and I can't tell if it's too much sun (6 direct hours), the changing heat, or watering. When I did Planta it said the porch was a bad location for the blubes and lettuce because of the sun, but Donna has been fine and I was told to just move them around for shade. I honestly don't have any other proper spot to move them unless I got, like, a table off the porch, because inside won't work. These plants are going to be container plants. I live in Zone 6. I don't know if that's necessary info but maybe. I just watered them all today but skipped yesterday because today IS HOT.
