Cucumbers - Rust


Question
my cucumbers are turning a rust color,its spots all over the leaves.they are producing good cucumbers but the rust colored spots went from one plant to several in a matter of days. what can i do to fix this?

Answer
Samantha, rust is a sign of a fungus disease which usually is caused by damp conditions. You need to spray the cucumbers with a copper fungicide. These products are readily available at most nurseries and garden centers. Just follow the directions on the bottle for application rates and frequency of spraying.

Good luck, and feel free to write again if I can ever be of assistance.

Regards,

Mike
