[quote=Anonymous]Decided to try container gardening on our deck this year. Have cucumbers and tomatoes planted in earth boxes. Both plants seem to be growing well and have lots of blossoms -- esp the cucumbers, the tomatoes are just starting. However, the older leaves on the cucumbers are turning yellow then brown in patches and drying out (new growth is health and deep green) and the tomatoes have aphids. I've tried googling these issues and there seems to be a lot of conflicting information. For example, some people say you *must* use pesticides and that you have to get rid of aphids on tomatoes. Others seem to think it's ok to just wash most of them off and leave the rest. I can't seem to get any sense at all of what the problem is with the cucumbers. Help! [/quote]
