If you see that cucumber leaves are not nice green, but on the contrary they have a yellowish color and are beginning to wake up, it is a sign of waterlogging. When you water the cucumber too much, its leaves will be yellow, soft and sagged. If you don’t do anything about it for a long time, they start falling off and. In this case, of course, the solution is simple to adjust the watering.
Regarding the dressing, cucumber leaves will give you a clear signal even if you do not water the plant enough. In case of insufficient watering, the leaves will be yellow and brown and dry at the edges. In this case, the cucumber solution is to water more, and possibly also use mulch to keep the soil moisture better.
Lack of nutrients and temperature
Cucumber leaves can very specifically tell you what nutrients the plant is missing. When the cucumber is missing nitrogen, first yellowed old leaves, and later new ones. The fetal size will be smaller and the cucumbers will grow slowly. When the cucumber is missing potassium, leaves and veins will turn yellow and the stems will be weak. In the absence of magnesium, older leaves will turn yellow and intervental chlorosis will occur. This may also occur in case of lack of iron, together with yellowing of new leaves. In each of these cases, the solution is a fertilizer with an added nutrient that the cucumber has a shortage.
In terms of temperature, cucumbers prefer temperature from 25 to 30 degrees Celsius. When the temperature suddenly changes and the warm sun is replaced by cold and rain, the leaves of the cucumbers turn yellow. In this case, acclimatize the plant and cover it during cold periods. On the other hand, put it in the shade during hot days and protect it from the sharp sun.
