Blueberry shoots

TSA:
Eric, as a side note- thats a very interesting shaft straightener.
i imagine that it works really well with heat and the applied pressure.
Did you build it?
do you have any other threads related to the little unit?

this far NW, anybody who plants Blue berries here- the bushes never get more than about 3' high.
i will ask what varieties they have here. Our soils are very acidic, around 5 to 5.5 PH, lots of rain,  around plus 5c in the winters to max of 25c in the summers

Hawkdancer:
I'm going to check out the Rabbit eye varieties as well, and a couple of self pollinators. I'll re-read the CSU report and probably try a couple of the varieties they planted.  As far as I know, that project is on going in Longmont.

Eric Krewson:
The shaft straighter is a standard aluminum arrow straightener from when people shot aluminum instead of carbon. It once had a dial indicator with a plunger to show minute bends in a shaft, I lost some of the tiny screws in the back of the dial indicator so I took it off. I got really good with it and could straighten almost any aluminum shaft back to perfect if I spent enough time.

Hawkdancer:
Apparently, there are some differences in the high-bush varieties.  Some have a southern flair and others are better suited to cooler climates!  Time will tell, and if I get berries, I will put nets over them!  And maybe get a live trap to get around city ordinances!

Good looking arrows Eric, should make some good ones with a little time and efforts, but that is what will make them special. :)
