cucumbers

My cucmbers turn yellow before they are fully grown. I have several cucumbers growing which are just about 2cm long and then they turn yellow. They are not big enough to eat so I have not left them too long, so what am I doing wrong please? I have only ever managed to harvest one cucumber. They are grown in growbags in greenhouse, please help. Thank you.
