# Happy Father’s Day plant community! What the heck is going on with my…

Happy Father’s Day plant community! What the heck is going on with my blackberry bush? It is getting a fair amount of water. I haven’t treated it for pests or anything because I have never had to do that before.

Any thoughts?

I’m not sure what’s happening either, but my cucumbers leaves are doing something similar too. I just attribute it to being too hot during the day and it starting to make the roots hot (I live in a pretty hot climate, so I typically have to water my fruits/veggies everyday or they won’t do well). Maybe that’s the problem then? Other than that I’d check the leaves for pests? I also spray them with an insect preventative.
