Question
What causes my otherwise great black raspberries to have little dry, brown spots on the berry?
Answer
What you’re seeing is probably the result of wasps, hornets, stinkbugs or other bucks helping themselves to the juice inside the little drupelets. They can suck out the juice in just a few of these and leave the rest of the berry intact. If it gets out of hand, consider protecting your bush with fine netting.
