    Some of the fruits from my strawberries in tubs have a somewhat glossy look to them, and the little leaves around them look like they are turning reddish.
    I let one of the fruit develop and one side turned out waxy, somewhat grey and definetely unhealthy (sorry, I did not take a photo of that specific one, which would probably have been more illustrative than the one I am posting).
    is this some kind of fungus?

    Also, a few more fruits show damage or even rot, even if they are not touching the ground directly. I suppose that might be some kind of aphid or beetle?

    Thanks for any advice and/or suggestion on how to contain the problem :)
