Read More »Leaf yellowing is a common sign of overwatering. When roots are sitting in water, they become damaged and unable to absorb nutrients. When leaves are yellow from overwatering, they will often be stunted and limp and may fall off. When this happens, check drainage around the base of the cucumber and reduce watering.
Cucumbers need less water in the cooler spring temperatures when you first plant them. Once the growing season takes off, determine the best watering schedule by digging into the soil 1 inch before watering. If the soil is still moist, do not water, and continue checking daily until the soil is dry, telling you it's time to water. Continue this method for a few weeks, keeping a journal of the results. This process will develop a watering schedule that you can adjust when it rains. Watering only when necessary, about once a week, helps cucumbers develop strong, deep roots. Mulch plants well with straw or wood chips to reduce evaporation, allowing for less frequent watering, and water during the morning at ground level rather than using overhead watering so the plant's leaves have a chance to dry out completely.
