greenhouse cucumbers
« on: June 10, 2011, 10:25:34 »
Hi Everyone

We had 12 cucumber plants in our greenhouse which were doing ok, but one by one they are dying (we have 4 left). Grew them last year and they were fine, but this year the stem just above the roots turns yellow, then the leaves and the plant is dead. Any ideas?

Thanks

Welcome to A4A.  Sorry not a cucumber expert so hopefully someone will be along soon.  I do believe that they are rather susceptible to rotting of the stem so this needs to be kept dry.

We have "cucumbers" "cucumbers again"  "Cucumbers dying" the next thread will be "stop killing your cucumbers".  or "i hate cucumbrs"
