I planted the pak choi, cucumbers and corn at the same time the pak choi is ready for harvest and is looking great the corn started out growing fast but now is not so nice the cucmber has started producing but the leaves are sickly, I am have been fishless cycleing for 6 weeks and plan on putting fish in in 1.5 week can anyone tell me what is wrong with corn and cucumber and what to do about it?

You need the fish in to provide nutrients... is the system cycled?

What have you been feeding the plants?... Seasol?... how much and how often?

It definitely looks like Potassium deficiency on the Corn and possibly on the cucumbers.

What's the pH of the water.
