    these are mature blueberry plants that are a number of years old that i've transplanted 2 months ago. they seemed to be doing well but i find that one of them has about a quarter of the plant that just seems to be rotting.
    the plant beside additionally seems to be showing a similar sign.

    do i need to prune this away immediately? i have been watering every second day to get them established... might i be watering too much? there are five other plants and so far they look pretty good.

    any advice much appreciated!

    i think this might be a disease that i need to cut out.

    Did they all fail eventually? Or just the 2 plants?
