Cucumber Issues

[phkc070408]

I'm having cucumber plant issues, specifically some branches are healthy, some are dying off. I live in Zoe 7A. I started my plants from seeds in early April and planted them in the ground around 10-May.

The issue is that some of the branches off of the main plant are entirely wilted, some are perfectly normal, and some are a mix. The ones that are a mix of good and wilted are more wilted towards the base, with the healthy part being farther from the base.

My wife said she found a cucumber Beatle in our lettuce, which was planted right next to the cucumbers. I just (10 minutes ago) learned about this. I went out, cut off the bad branches and most of the dead leaves. I also gave them a good spray of Nheem oil and Captain Jack's Super Soap.

I can't get any pictures right now because it's almost dark here, but I'll try and get some up tomorrow.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance

I would chalk that up as a weak plant. I had similar with my cuce plants: one wilted badly and the others were fine. Since there was no pest damage and all had the exact came conditions, I yanked it out, told it, " It's the trash bin for you now Buddy" and that was that.

Well, it wasn't just one plant. It seemed to be various branches of each plant. But hopefully cutting off the bad stems will help it out.
