@autocook16 The video represents pruning in late winter (March). Next year refers to what we'll be pruning the following winter. So, vegetative buds we see this year will be shoots with fruit buds when we're pruning next year.
I live in western Tennessee. When would be the best time of year to prune my blueberry bushes. I have 5 that are 25 - 30 years old and have never been pruned.
Now I understand - finally! thanks, great video!

Can someone tell me if this video was taken in the early spring? And if so, when he says "next year", does he actually mean two summers from now?

@DadThreeTimes Prune when the plants are dormant. Usually any time from January 1st until the buds start to swell.
