Hello!

I've never grown veggies before and in March I planted some cucumbers in a container on my balcony. They've been growing like crazy and I have a couple that look like they'll be ready for picking soon. However I recently started noticing that the lower leaves and their stems are turning yellow.

Three weeks ago I added some Jobes all-purpose fertilizer sticks, and about 10 days ago I added ground egg shells to the soil when I watered.

All the things I've read online say that yellow leaves can be caused by so many different things but I'm not sure how to diagnose.

Any suggestions? Thank you!
