hi first year growing cukes had a few and fab they have been, but now further up the plant the growth of fruit is very slow and some look stunted and going a little yellow any reasons thx

In my limited experience if mature fruits are left on the plant a little too long, fruits forming further up the stem will be inhibited and turn yellow and wither away. As soon as a fruit is near ready to crop remove it promptly. Good luck.

Have they been watered enough/regularly?

[hanssg]

they get watered every day and they get a feed once a week should I feed them more

As this is not the greenhouse thread, I assume they are outside ones that need pollinating; that could be an issue.

If they are in the ground then daily watering is probably too much and may also be a factor.

They shouldn't need more feeding, although many people advocate feeding them a weaker solution more often (e.g. half the recommended dose twice as often).
