Hi,
Can anybody suggest what might be wrong with my cucumbers? The leaves
have gone very speckled yellow and are now curling up, going brown

and
dying.
Small photo attached.


Since this is not a binary group many news servers do not propagate
pictures. Post the picture to a binary group and give the location
here or use http://www.tinypic.com/ and give the URL for it.


Ah, Sorry. Didn't realise. OK have used tiny pic.

Quite good that site!


Nutrient deficiency, possibly K.

Were you plants fertilized?


As in feed? I have been watering with phosphogen which contans 8.6%
Pot Oxide ( according to the label))


'Fertilzed' was a rather imprecise way to refer to feeding.

Spider mites can cause leaves to look that way, too.
