Cucumbers Turning Yellow

My cucumbers are blooming and producing cucumbers but when they become about an inch long the bloom falls off and the cucumber turns yellow and dries up. What is going wrong?

Most likely they have worms inside. Cut one open and make sure that they are not being eaten from the inside out . Also use insecticide called (Pyola). This should take care of any problems .

Hmm... It sounds like they are getting too ripe. That's the color they usually turn. Good luck.
