I recently got a blueberry plant and I'm keeping it in a larger pot with Coast of Maine soil meant for acid-loving plants. However, I'm struggling to get the pH down—it's sitting at 7.1 right now. Any tips or solutions?

You might want to try adding a soil acidifier to help bring that pH down gradually. Products like Miracle Grow MirAcid fertilizer can give you an instant boost in acidity when needed. Also, keep an eye on the new growth—if it’s vibrant and green, that’s a good sign your soil conditions are improving!
I use Epsoma soil acidity in my blueberry pot. Just make sure you're adjusting based on the size of your pot—sometimes you might need a bit more if it’s larger. Just keep monitoring the pH to find the right balance!
