This year was a disaster for my cucumber crop.Two were pickling kind and one was regular supposed to produce 18 inches long cucumber.I got 1 from pickling and one from regular one.Pickling kind did not produce any more while the other one had all distorted fruits thru rest of the season.I am posting thr pic. of distorted cucumber here.Is this due to changing weather conditions like more of very hot days and lack of enough rain or any other reason?

Gosh, Chaman, that's a tuff one for me.

Insufficient soil moisture is what I need to guard against so as not to have abnormal cukes.

Certainly looks like healthy foliage.

Containers (?) . . . potassium deficiency (?).
