courette leaves are turning white!

please help - i grew them from seed, and planted them out two weeks ago in the uk - the first week they thrived - tripled in size - now one leaf on evey plant is turning white - and on one plant it has discoloured and totally shrivelled up! is this the sign of a frost i havent seen? too much water? any ideas anyone?

Probably easiest to just grow some more. They are fast growers. I
assume you mean courgette.

Probably a fungus, frost turns them black not white.
