This morning I notice that the leaves of my cukes looked excessively moist and translucent in areas. Almost like the morning dew had penetrated the leaf tissue and turned it to soft mush. Now those areas have turned dry, tan, and crispy. The variety is called Diva. Anyone have any ideas about how serious this is? It has been great weather until the just the past three nights when it has dipped into the upper 40's lower 50's overnight and been foggy till as late as 10:30 am.

Here are pics from this afternoon.
I should note, I'm never very successful growing cucumbers, but my daughters keep insisting I try.
