White Spots on Cucumber Leaves #834487
Asked June 08, 2023, 8:53 AM EDT
Are you able to tell me what the white spots on my cucumber leaves are? If so, do you have a recommended course of action? As you can see in the picture, the cucumber plants share a 4x4 raised box with 2 tomato plants. Is there a chance whatever it is could spread to them? If so, do you suggest removing the cucumber plants?
Thank You,

Hi- we see a very small amount of discolored (white) leaf tissue that does not appear to be powdery mildew or any other disease.
