I recently brought a blueberry plant from the garden centre. I heard it needs acidic oil but I don’t have any. Will they grow fine in this soil

No, blueberries definitely need very acidic soil, either would have to get a soil testing kit and amend that one heavily until the ph is 4-5. Or get an acidic loving soil specifically for blueberries, most compost or regular garden soil is actually closer to being basic than acidic

Compost containing peat can be acidic. Unfortunately, that one is peat free. Always use a ph test kit to measure ph levels.
