I have a pretty new blackberry bush i got in almost perfect health. As you can see its growing berries and there are little flowers growing on it. I’m having a few issues and I’ve never grown berries or any kind of fruit. My first issues is the leaves in the second to last photo, i assume somethings been eating them but I’m not sure what, I didn’t see and pests on the leaves or plants anywhere. Does anyone know what kind of pest it could be or what i can do to prevent it? I’d also like to know if that could permanently damage the plant? The second issue is in the last picture, The one stem is just a dark brown with brown leaves but I believe it’s one of the few with an actual berry so far. Any advice or info is helpful! Someone please help me take better care of this baby. 😞
