Cucumber. Is this chemical burn? #412168
Asked July 06, 2017, 12:44 PM EDT
Hi,
I looked through the photos and didnt see this one. Its a cucumber plant that i think may have chemical burn from when i applied Scotts weed and feed to my lawn.
My questions are:
Is it chemical burn?
How do i proceed?
Is the plant going to die?
Can i eat the cucumbers?
I also have another cucumber plant that shares the same earth box planter with the damaged one and two tomato plants in a different earth box that show no signs of this. Are those OK to eat

I am not certain if it is chemical burn. If you are concerned at all that it is damaged by what you used on your grass it is not edible.
