My cukes are starting to get toasted from mildew, but still putting out the fruit. The rains haven't been too bad, but it has been pretty humid. I've gotten about 5 nice sized cukes out of there already.

I have been pulling off the leaves of those which get mildew, and the new growth seems good. I may have to break down and start using a fungicide, as I am sure that will stick around, next year, now that it has appeared.

Maybe I should just pull the whole patch.
