The blueberries are starting to leaf and blossoms in the greenhouse already. Here on the oregon coast we had an extremely warm period between november and december. I saw temps of around 75 degrees outside, and 100 degrees in the greenhouse on a few days, greenhouse temps reached 75+ many other days. (it was empty at the time, except for the blueberries.) A few weeks after that the blueberry started blossoming like crazy. I pinched them all off knowing there would not be enough sunshine and good weather to keep them healthy. (bad idea? good idea?) This time I'm leaving them. It's almost March, so they should be just fine. November just seemed to early. Hopefully I didn't break my blueberry plant.
