    Help needed can someone tell me what’s caused this on my cucumber leave please? Can I just cut it off and hope for the best, or do I need to bin the whole plant...the rest of them looks fine....I have no idea as never grown them before, so any help will be much appreciated thanks oh knowledgeable ones xx.

      Bit too much sun most likely - just leave them as they are and the plants will grow on fine - probably be another 20 years before we have hot sunny days in early May again to worry about :-)

        Thanks I did wonder if it was sun damage, I did move them to the other side of the conservatory and they do seem to have perked up a bit, will it be ok to cut those leaves off? X

          They were, so I moved them over last week I did wonder if it was sun damage.

            I woulddn't bother cutting the leaves off - the wounds won't help matters and the leaves as they are, are probably still working at 75% efficiency. Later when the plants are bigger, then no harm in tidying them up if you want to.
