Planting Guide:

• Choose the Right Location: Select a sunny or partially shaded spot in your garden. Lingonberries thrive in cool, acidic conditions, and can tolerate partial shade.
• Prepare the Soil: Ensure the soil is acidic (pH 4.5-5.5), well-drained, and rich in organic matter. If your soil is alkaline, amend it with peat moss or sulfur to lower the pH.
• Plant the Seeds: Plant Lingonberry Seeds 1/4 inch (0.6 cm) deep, spacing them 12-18 inches (30-45 cm) apart to allow for their spread.
• Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Lingonberries prefer moist, well-drained soil, especially during dry periods.
• Care for the Bush: Remove weeds that may compete with the Lingonberry bush for nutrients. Prune dead or damaged stems regularly to encourage healthy growth and fruiting.
• Harvesting: Lingonberries are ready to harvest once they are fully ripe, deep red, and firm to the touch. They ripen in late summer to early fall and can be harvested fresh or used in preserves.
