It’s in some mix of cannabis soil I had, with 30% added compost.

A tomato plant got the same mix and is doing just fine, this cucumber guy seems to be unhappy.

I checked the pH (mixed soil with some water and used my pH / EC meter) and it was around 6, so I thought it should not be nute lockout, cucumbers are supposed to be between 6-6,5?

I have no clue but I would guess it’s iron, guessing from images I’ve seen, but I’m surprised how it could be lacking iron if a tomato is doing fine in the same soil.

Also whatever it is, how should I fix it?

    If you pop the plant up and look at its roots right now you’d answer your own questions. Cucumbers roots grow very rapidly at that stage. They are all over that pot chasing nutrients. If it is a nutrients issue, it’s from that potting soil.
