Die Oberseite meiner Brombeeren scheint ausgetrocknet zu sein und nur noch die Samen übrig zu haben. Es sind nicht alle, aber gut 30 oder so in der gleichen Gegend
Weiß jemand, warum das passiert und ob ich etwas tun kann, um es zu stoppen?

It could be poor pollination, I’ve seen some reports of that happening this year due to a lack of bees
It could also be lack of water
Could be a number of issues, here are some ideas to ponder –
1. **Sunscald**: Intense sunlight, especially during the hottest part of the day, can cause the berries to dry out and become sunburned. This is more common in areas with very hot, sunny climates or when plants are not adequately shaded.
2. **Uneven Watering**: Inconsistent watering practices can cause the soil to alternate between being too dry and too wet, which can stress the plants and result in uneven fruit development. Blackberries need consistently moist, but not waterlogged, soil.
3. **Pest Damage**: Pests such as stink bugs, aphids, or certain beetles can feed on the berries, causing parts of the fruit to dry out and shrivel. These pests may leave visible signs such as small insects, eggs on the leaves and fruit, or feeding damage.
4. **Fungal Infections**: Fungal diseases like Botrytis (gray mold) or anthracnose can affect the berries, leading to parts of the fruit drying out or becoming shriveled. Fungal infections are often exacerbated by high humidity and poor air circulation.
5. **Pollination Issues**: Poor pollination can result in uneven fruit development, where some parts of the berry fail to develop properly and dry out. This can happen if there are not enough pollinators, such as bees, visiting the flowers or if adverse weather conditions (e.g., rain, wind) interfere with the pollination process.
