I’m a newbie at this. Any idea why my blueberry bush leaves are turning reddish? This is my first time growing blueberries
ETA: I just transplanted it about a week, maybe a week and a half ago. I didn’t add anything to the soil, I just used Costco’s potting soil.

How’s your soil ph? Newly transplanted? Protip: fill pot all the way to the top to maximize space for roots.
Red leaves not during fall usually means a phosphorus deficiency. Add some bone meal to the soil.
blueberries need acidic soil, did you add soil acidifier to your soil? also recommended filling up soil to the top and using at least 15 gallon container for blueberries

Depending on where you are you can find similar products. We top up maybe once a month, or whenever the leaves start signalling us
Is this a Bushel and Berry peach sorbet
