I have grown three lebanese cucumber plants from seed. They did
fabulously and flowered well. Now that the cucumbers have actually

provide advice as to what happened to such a promising yield???

Hard to say. Wouldn't have become water logged during the wet weather?
Does it find that it's now spending a lot of the day in the shade, as the
sun starts to go north? More likely than these, though, is that the older
leaves gradually succumbed to mildew during the damp humid weather we have
had between the showery days lately.

Thanks John for your thoughts - I think mildew might be the issue (and
I have also noticed that they aren't getting as much sun as they
were). I'll know next time, won't I! Thanks again.
