I didn't get any fruit just yet, but my cucumbers were doing great, up until a couple of days ago when I started seeing this.
Can you guys and gals tell what's wrong?
Thanks

Hey guys, thanks for trying to help out. I was away on vacation, and didn't see all the posts.
As it does seem it's some kind of virus, I pulled out the cukes, so it doesn't spread to the rest of my garden.
However, I'm seeing some small white spots on the yellow squash leaves too, I wonder if it will turn into the same thing....
Thanks again for all your help!

Small white spots on squash leaves might be powdery mildew:

That's good news, because it is a fungus not a virus, so slower progression and more easily treated. Remove affected leaves and spray everything else, including under sides of leaves with an organic anti-fungal. Home remedies include milk solution, baking powder solution, or hydrogen peroxide.
