When you open them they only have a small red part and are really quite dryish, and they are rather tasteless, even though the taste is sweet. Should I have fed them something earlier in the year to make them taste better and be juicier or is it just not a good variety? I have no idea what the variety is, but they have never been this size before, and we have lived here for 17 years. Any comments welcome, thank you.

You could try leaving it unpruned for next year so you don'y cut off the flower buds by mistake. Water in spring. I am not sure of the cause.

Far less damage is done by tree roots than is imagined, the main cause of problem is the shrinkage caused by the tree taking water from the surrounding soil.

If it spreads try a fungicide. It shouldn’t be harmful as long as the pots are well watered. If it spreads try a fungicide.
