I am starting to grow some blueberry bushes and raspberries in the ground and some strawberries in containers. What soil ph is best for each of those plants?

Blueberries: acidic (5.5), strawberries/raspberries: slightly acidic (6.0-7.0). Use a fertilizer with calcium, if avaiable, and relatively high potassium for good result (10-13-13, 10-20-20) for example.
