What I need to do now ?
My cucumbers turned pale and last week and I was wondering if it's because of overwatering (been raining everyday)
The leaves have changed colors and have holes. But i don't see any bugs. The blossoms keep falling off. I had 8 plants now i have only 3.

Thank you Suresh Gollar . It's physical appearance and morphology is different from stink bugs. The other links you shared were very helpful. Thank you

You are always welcome and we are happy to assist you Peter Ekene Joshua . As you know - exact physical and morphological appearance of stink bug might be different. But as you know exact stink Bug identification is difficult through images. This is because, there are as many as more than 250 species are available in stink bug, in only one continent of Africa. Lets confirm at your end please.
