I am a newbie gardener as a whole, and a brand new large container gardener. Thanks to this forum, I have my soil ready. I would like to know what berry cultivars people have grown successfully in containers. I am also having difficulty estimating the size of container for each type of plant. Any other tips would be welcome.

I am looking at blueberries, strawberries, raspberries and blackberries but would be interested in other varieties. Especially lingonberries. I have rooted and potted some wild blackberries to try as a test. They are still alive, which is encouraging.

I am in PA, zone 6.
