Unique Rain Damage
After the 3 nasty rain in 2 weeks my plants showed up with this on fruits, the other plants are OK, will the fruit be OK?
Other than my disease which has killed 2 plants over 2 months , it does not spread around!!!!! must be in the roots/ground this 1 is Brads Black/Brown Boar which i love |

Mine look the same way after the same rains- I've found that the small cracks seem to lead to more rot happening before the fruits are completely ripe. Otherwise, I just cut that part off. I don't think the fruits are tasting as good- all the water, I guess.
Looks like we've got the same icky leaves, too. Kath |

They look nice- I hate those worms! Seems I'm always picking just blushed fruits before more rain hits. We're in the midst of more thunderstorms now. The only ones I leave on are the bagged fruits so the seeds will have more time to develop- I don't care too much if they split and get ugly.
