Default Cucumber leaf wilt

My cucumber plants are thriving, but for every eight or nine leaves
that have the size, rigor, and health of elephant ears, I'll have one
or two leaves that have the look and feel of wet kleenix -- and
they're all on the same plant. Any idea what causes this? Is there
anything that can be done to restore their turgor? Would I be better
to excise the wilted leaves before they fester, turn brown, and
attrack micrscopic diners? Or should I just let them be?
