Can you grow blueberries indoors

Hey everybody I have some blueberry plants in my tent along with my tomatoes and I was just wondering if the blueberry plants will get too big for the tent or is there some way of training them so they stay fairly small thnx in advance +rep for all good answers.

How big is your space? And blueberries dont produce the first year usually, and correct me if im wrong but im pretty sure you have to winter them over for them to produce.

yes they will get too big, at least in comparison to tomatoes. are they sharing a light source? no idea about the training. I've got a blueberry in a 7 gal pot outside and it is getting pretty big.another 2 months and i don't think any tent for growing would hold it right.

Blueberry bushes can get up to 8-9 feet tall depending on the variety. I have 7 of them in my garden. You could grow them inside but they will eventually outgrow a tent for sure. They also will not produce really well til about the third year. By that time they will certainly have outgrown your tent.

Can you? Yes.
"Should you"? I think that's the better question.

To address the above, blueberries are usually purchased as rooted plants grown from cuttings and they definitely can yield fruit the first year, just not very much of it. It takes another 1-2 years in the ground for the plants to develop enough of a root system and size to get a decent yield.

I think it probably possible to grow these successfully indoors, but the fruits do take a long time to mature and you'd probably want to keep pot size small to help prevent the plant from getting too big.

Also, if I remember right, they do better when cross-fertilized with pollen from a different cultivar, though I think in practice this isn't absolutely necessary.
