Strange looking cukes

Any idea what's up with my cukes? That isn't a glare from the flash of my camera - the leaves actually look like that . . .

I managed to kill my cukes last year (long story), so I'm really trying to keep these alive! Might start some new seeds just in case . . . and/or see if I can get some plants from a nursery . . . just in case . . . Thanks!

The round leaf is the initial leaf that came from the seed when it sprouted... it will die and drop off or you can take it off now. The lower leaves on my cukes look like yours, the tops leaves are dark green and healthy. I think that's normal for cukes.

Hmm, well it doesn't entirely surprise me that this might be normal . . . since I have no idea what normal is based on last year . . . Embarassed

Thanks!
