Bacteria Wilt
I believe our cucumber plants have a problem. For the past week or so they have been getting droopy leaves that seems to get worse everyday. Eventually they crinkle up and die.
I did a little research and found that there is a cucumber beetle (I’ve seen the yellow and black spotted variety) that can infect your cucumber plants with bacterial wilt. Once they do this, there is really no way to save the plant. I’m just happy that we’ve already gotten 56 cucumbers. I’ve also seen the squash bug on our cucumbers, which apparently does damage as well. Well, it’s been a good run. Maybe next year we will cover our plants until they bloom to keep these guys from laying eggs on the leaves.
