My fruit again disease? :(


On fruits begin to appear orange dots. Who knows what's going on?

Few days ago it was ok.

< edit> based on the new photo you added I don't think it is coral spot fungus. 

<delete> Fungus don't like basic solutions.  Spray with some baking soda (or potassium bicarbonate) with a little sunlight dish soap so it sticks <delete>.


Most figs have spots on them but yours has the white spots already so it's not normal for orange spots to appear also. it could be bug damage. I can't tell if thats latex near the eye from a branch above it or a slug trail. While you sleep many bugs will eat your plants but my guess would be stink bugs. Good luck and keep us updated. 

You didn't let us know how it effects the taste or smell. IMHO, food is better if you don't look. If we judged with our eyes, we would all be eating the flawless, but bland and underripe fruits from the grocery store.

barnhardt9999 I do not know how the taste, because the disease tree, all the figs fruit fell, lost almost all the leaves in July. I sprayed fig tree in July and then grows decently. These are the only fruit on the tree, which had already begun to grow somehow in August.

pino  Yes, this is probably not fungus, maybe rust? :(

ediblelandscapingsc I never noticed bugs on figs, or at night, or during the day, but it may be it.
