Blueberries Pest & Disease Programs - Biological Inputs That Fit Your Spray Window

Growing blueberries with Vegalab

Blueberry size and yield track closely with pollination - well-pollinated flowers set larger, earlier fruit - while Botrytis and anthracnose threaten fruit at bloom and harvest.

Vegalab's Pollen Boost supports flower and fruit set, and Spore Control covers the key diseases. Rates follow the registered label.

Blueberry is unusual in that pollination shows up in the fruit itself rather than only in the count: a well-pollinated flower sets a larger berry and sets it earlier, so the bloom program reaches size and timing as well as yield. The disease pressure lands at the two ends of the same season - Botrytis at bloom, when the open flower is the entry point, and anthracnose through to harvest on the fruit itself. That is why cover is worth having in place at flowering rather than starting once fruit is visible.
