Q How can I stop plums rotting?

thereSa robinSon, bUcKS A Brown rot is a fungal disease that spreads from fruit to fruit where they touch. It often invades the first fruit through damage by a bird or wasp but then causes the fruit to rot rapidly, forming a series of rings of spores. To stop it, remove infected fruit as soon as you see them, otherwise the disease can spread into stems and cause die back.
