Deeply Rooted
I remember this subject being addressed on here sometime in the past, but dont know if my exact concerns were brought up..cant find the old link.
We moved here a year ago, and we are reestablishing everything.
I can remember for a very long time, that I know you dont use old railroad ties or treated lumber for raised beds because of arsnic and other seepage,
I dont know if it was a brain glitch (not what most call them) but I did something stupid last fall.
We have a new electric pole set in our front yard. I thought I would be smart and grow a flower bed around it to beautify that area. so we worked hard, used top soil etc, and made this lovely deep bed, then one day my blueberry order arrived, For reasons I can not understand, I thought ,why not, it would be a great place to put them, and the dirt is already prepared, so to make an already too long story shorter, we planted out blueperry plants in that bed. They are only a few feet away from the pole, and being a new pole, I can even see where some of the "oil" or whatever had run into the ground around it. My question is how far will this spread out into the soil, how dangerous will they be if we eat them,they are loaded with blooms.
HELP!!! If I move them, will they have already have a heavy uptake in the plant?
