How to fertilize Alpine Bilberry

Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Alpine Bilberry after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

The leaves on this plant are all a shade of yellow to red. There are little brown spots on all of the leaves. Water, fertilizer, and grow light exposure for a few days hasn't really changed much. Any thoughts on the cause or what I can do to fix it? #PinkLemonadeBlueberry #PlantsMakePeopleHappy
