Acidic soil guild - Blueberry companion planting and what to grow in acidic soil beds

Acidic soils and vegetable beds can be problematic to plant is as not all plants can tolerate acid soil. However, Blueberries can only survive in very acidic soil, which open up the questions of "what can you plant with blueberries?" or "what are good blueberry companion plants?". Like this video? Buy me a coffee to say thanks - https://www.buymeacoffee.com/mysustai... This is a very good question and can be a challenge without the right information. Blueberry companion planting doesn't need to be complicated. For me, it is a matter of trial and error to get the best combination. For me I want to uphold as many permaculture principles as possible with what I do, which is why I try to plant according to the 7 layers of a food forest as much as possible and make sure that I am planting fruits and vegetables that each serve a very specific purpose. In my acidic soil and blueberry guild I have a main tree, which is a guava tree, a herbaceous layer, a shurb layer and multiple ground cover layers. This allows you to confuse and deter birds and other pests by making access difficult and scents being confusing. When looking at companion planting for blueberry plants and acidic soils you might also come across a term called a guild. A guild is an interconnected network of purposefully positioned plants that work together to create a self-sustaining ecosystem that builds soil and plants health and immunity. To get the most out of your blueberry bed it is strongly recommended to not just have a full planting of blueberries, but rather to interplant many different fruits and vegetables that can tolerate acidic soil. Once your acidic vegetable bed or food forest section has settled in your will be harvest fruits and vegetables for years to come and throughout the season, rather than once a year when your blueberries ripen their crop.
