    I guess with fertile soil, water, cucumber seeds of course, and sunshine.

    A recent programme screened here in Australia showed a lady who added crushed “Aspirin” to the soil with dramatic effect, she grew larger plants for a longer period.

    I’m a CT gardener too and I usually do pretty well with the cukes. I suspect your problem was probably caused by cucumber beetles. Be on the lookout for yellow and black striped or spotted beetles on your plants. As they feast, they transmit a bacteria that causes the plants to wilt. Your best bet is to handpick the bugs as you see them, either squishing them (my method) or dropping them into a cup of soapy water. If you feel like you’re infested, you can try a dusting of rotenone, but usually the handpicking is enough unless it’s really bad. On a good year, I’m usually sick of cukes by the time the wilt gets the plants. . .
