Gardening Know How Questions & Answers - https://questions.gardeningknowhow.comIt’s rained hard in the afternoon for a couple days and my cucumber leaves are curling. What’s the cause?

Heavy rain in poor draining soil can be a deadly combination for garden plants.
I would just wait and see if the plants will live.
Watch for signs of fungus or insects and treat with Neem Oil.
