No, I've no idea what a biosynergy is either, I was just reading that other thread about bioregionalism and thought I'd get in on the act.

So, when I pick a rhubarb stalk, I take off the leaf, cover the ground around the blueberries with it. The ground gets a mulch, the weeds get covered and the acid from the leaves should (over time) acidify the soil which the blueberries like.

We get woodchip from conifer prunings sometimes delivered to our allotments - I use them around the blueberries.

I like the idea of going down the garden to deflower the rhubarb
