    My cucumber plant that I started from seed is around a month and a half old. Some of its leaves are turning brown around the edges and have holes in them. They are not a deep, healthy green. Why? Luckily, my plant has been producing a lot of male flowers for around a week, but still no females. Is this normal? Thanks

    Handle the same as the zuchinni but a bit more water. I would spray both plants for insects now and every couple of weeks through the growing season ! Squash bugs can attack both plants. Make sure to spray them at the soil line as well as the leaves.

    Looks like they need fertilizer.
