Planting blueberries in pots or sacks made from agrotextile is still in the testing phase in Serbia due to different climate conditions that vary by region. This type of planting enables better control over the plants, easier protection from pests, and effortless transfer if needed. It’s important to know that this type of planting provides better use of the plot area – 4000-5000 seedlings cover 1 hectare.
A drawback of this kind of blueberry growing is that the size of the pot/sack becomes too small in a few years when the plant reaches its maximum. Also, plantations with pots/sacks require specialized irrigation systems that are sensitive to hard water.
