Cucumber
A few weeks ago our cucumber plants started to show signs of wilting. They were healthy after they sprouted and it wasnt until the 3rd leaf started to grow that the other leaves seemed to die. Now we can see slight discoloration even on the newer leaves. I failed to thin my seedlings therefore could be a nutrient issue.

pls identity and suggest treatment
+ 1It's 70 days old plant. Was fine a few days ago and has already given a few good cucumbers. (Although most of them were bitter). Since 2-3 days, leaves have started getting dry. Drying up starts at edges. Then whole leaf, then whole vine becomes dry. Earlier there was leafminer problem, which got treated with Neem spray. (It's already done twice at 20 days interval) I can see very small (smaller than a pencil dot) hardly visible, brown colored insects on back of each leaf.

Jordi Cooper Yes, could be a nutrients issues in place. However Potassium Deficiency is a characteristic symptom of drying alongside margins of leaves. Aphids are mostly the agent that suck delicate structures of new flushes, as a result, the growing leaves will form curling mode subsequently. Pls review details in Plantix library by clicking on green link. Thank you in advance for asking us once again😊
