Unidentified Cucumber Problem

Aug 05, 2003 1 Replies

I have been to a gazillion websites and I cannot find one that shows me a picture of the kind of damage my cucumbers are suddenly experiencing. Lots of bug pictures but no damaged cukes that I could find. These are Divas (whcih have been producing like crazy). Something is eating the skin but not penetrating more than a very thin layer, leaving trails of connected roundy spots on the surface of the cucumbers. The skin then dies and the cukes are then distorted in shape. Problem is, I cannot find any bugs!



Another problem is that some of the cucumbers get these brownish blotches on them, sort of like the skin has dried in veiny-streaks.



Any ideas what either of these might be?


don't know much about it, but these symptoms strike me as a sort of fungus..

just a guess, L.
