That's a shame.  :(  Cucumber mosaic virus possibly?

Hi
be following this one as my courgettes are now growing all dented and dimpled, no scars on the skin and they are a nice glossy deep green...

i've been checking all my others ,they all seem well,we took the plant out and binned it ,just incase it spread to the others.

If the leaves have become a mixture of light and dark green it probably is cucumber mosaic disease and the fruit will become increasingly manky - best to bite the bullet and just pull up that plant like you did.

I noticed that the courgettes that are pale green and ribbed seem to grow better than the dark smooth type ? some leaves have grey mold on them ,don't know if that has anything to do with the ill looking ones?
