Abstract

A weed survey of 115 Nova Scotia lowbush blueberry fields was conducted during the summers of 1984 and 1985 to determine the most common and prevalent weeds associated with blueberry production. A total of 119 weed species were observed within the surveyed blueberry fields. The most common weed species were bunchberry, colonial bentgrass, poverty oatgrass, sheep sorrel, and false lily-of-the-valley. Weeds with low relative abundance in this study, but which may become more widespread, include three-toothed cinquefoil, Kentucky bluegrass, hair fescue, canker-root, and Canadian St. Johnswort.
