All new fruits emerging are also going brown. This has never happened before. I have an irrigation system so they've been watered during the hot weather, so I don't think it's sunburn - but the ones that are brown are also very light and, therefore, dry. Does anyone have any ideas? My googling has suggested it may be leather rot, a fungal disease, but I don't know. All I know is we've been looking forward all week to a bowl of our strawberries and so are very disappointed :-( Last weekend my strawberries were promisingly green, but I’ve returned today to find most of them have turned brown (and the ones that have made it to red have largely been nibbled by the snails).

I used fleece last year and it worked a treat - kept them very snug and warm and, I presume, held in all the lovely chemicals that they released to help the others ripen. Mmmmm...
