  • Withered blackberries?

    Okies, this is a weird one - I've just noticed that half of my blackberries are partially, well, dead. As far as I can see, it looks like they've been scorched and half of the little bits on each berry are dried up and brown. Others are starting to ripen but are half black and half white, which is also a bit strange.

    Somewhat disappointing, but thems the breaks! I was wondering though, is it sun scorch, or has something gone a bit wrong?

    Hope someone can help!

    (I can grab a photo if it is of help)

    If the fruit looks shrivelled and dry I would suspect raspberry beetle. Little boggers
