Cucumber problem

Posted by Lola140 Central FL (My Page) on

My cucumber plant started fruiting but the cukes only got about half ripe, then yellowed. The final result was mushy, watery filled cucumber skin. I've attached a picture. Can anyone help me with this? This is my first year vegetable gardening.
Thanks
Lori

Too far gone to tell, but given your location and the final results, I would suspect the pickle worm.

Pick prior to any hint of yellow.
