You need to check out my place sometime.  I have roughly 5 acres of organic peat.  The soil is pretty much black and looks like "potting soil" which is what we have used it for.  I have several large palm trees (the kind that people pay big bucks for) that grew naturally there as well as lots of maple, hickory, oak and pine trees.

We also have another roughly 15 or so acres of very rich soil that we hope to start growing on soon.  It was once a blueberry farm that got overtaken by vines that we have been cleaning up and clearing.  I don't have a lot of sandy soil until I get up towards the top of the hill of our property where we are building our retirement home.

As far as the lot here in Jagsonville where we live, yes it's only good for growing weeds and [BLEEP] Bahia grass that needs mowing twice a week.

Blueberries do well in acidic soil with a PH around 5.5. 

Don't know if your replanting blueberries or something else but if you plant something that does better in neutral soil (most things) or alkaline soil it would probably be worth your time to have a soil test done to see what you're working with. 

That's assuming the previous guy planted blueberries due to the PH or modified the soil to their liking.
