How do you grow Original Blueberry?
Original Blueberry is considered a moderate difficulty strain to cultivate. It has a flowering time of 8-9 weeks indoors and is ready for outdoor harvest in late September to early October. The plants tend to be medium in height, typically reaching 3-5 feet indoors and 5-7 feet outdoors.
