Frost and Downy Mildew on Cucumbers

 

Frost and downy mildew on cucumbers. They are still producing anyway! 

Frost is the damage on the whole leaves at the top, the farthest away from the warm soil. 
The blotches are downy mildew, a common problem on cucumbers and squash in Florida. 

I select the fastest growing cucumber seeds so I can get harvests before the plant is taken over by downy mildew.
