Hi there 1Lisac,

I have had a series of problems with my cucumber plants. I do not have a picture of them when I posted this link. They just wilted and dropped to the ground. After this problem I had caterpillars, pictures posted here: http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/992049/ . I might have had some spider mites as well, don't really know, lost at least half of my plants after the caterpillars, loads of rain (we had straight rain for a week), and the dust treatment, they just dried up and died. Presently it looks like they are trying to recover, I have some new perky growth and they are getting a lot of blooms. I am keeping my fingers crossed. Any comments or tips are welcomed :)
