 I have not had to prune my blueberries.  I don't think they grow very big - or at least they haven't here.  All you would need to do would be to remove any dead twigs - otherwise let it do its own thing  8)

I'd agree with that.  Just about to put some more in.  Last ones went in buckets with ericacious compost but this lot will just go in the ground.  Be interesting to see what difference - if any - there is.

OK thanks for that, mine is in a big pot and had lots of fruit this year. I have had it 2 years now and just wondered if I should be pruning. :)
