What is wrong with my pomegranates? The leaves and the bark look great, but there are brown specs all over the skin of the fruit, and the fruit gradually becomes completely brown instead of red. Also, when I cut the fruit open, the fruit is extremely dry inside, with no juice at all.

I live in Texas, and during the spring this year, iit rained about once a week for three straight months, from about April 1st until the end of June. But now it is the dry season, so it hasn't rained at all since the end of June, and it probably won't rain much until September.

Do you think the fruit has fungus which was caused by too much rain during the spring? Or is the fruit "scalded" from too much sun?

I'd like to hear people's opinions because I love pomegranates, but now all the fruit is completely inedible.
