My cucumber plants went into my tunnel last week, looking fairly healthy but ready for moving out of there pots. They have not really grown much and are not looking to healthy, im a bit worried about them . I have attached a photo (one of the worse looking ones). The tunnel has been very hot and I have been watering well every morning.
This is my third year of growing in my tunnels and usually these plants are unstoppable
Any advice would be great.

Hello Geacher, it looks like sunburn to me , cucumbers do better with some light shade and adequate moisture, moist but well drained. Given those conditions they will probably recover and flourish.
