Cucumbers leaves going yellow and crumbly
in Fruit & veg
Hi,
I planted out my cucumbers on the weekend and since then the leaves have been deteriorating. They are going crumbly and have white/brown patches on them and some look slightly yellow. I have had a look for insects and I pulled a few aphids off and I came across something brown that jumped away. Any thoughts on what I can do to save them before all the leaves start turning this way?
The new growth looks healthy and there are plenty of flowers.
These are the first things I have grown from seed so I really want to try and save them!
Thanks

They're old leaves, they will deteriorate -possibly a bit of sunscorch and other weather damage will accentuate the aging. As long as there are plenty of healthy new leaves there's nothing to worry about.
