Like many, this is my first year trying to grow veggies. I have planted a cucumber in a very large pot (didn't have room for a hill to plant it on). All was going well until about 5 days ago when I noticed some dry brown spots starting to appear on the leaves. The dry areas are expanding so I'm starting to get worried it's more than just some growing pains. Here is a picture of the plant. In my next post, I'll show a closeup of the leaf. Hoping someone can help me determine what is going wrong here and how I can address it organically. Thanks in advance for your help!
