I have recently planted my vegetable plants and they are All (Okra, Squash, Cucumber, zucchini, tomatoes) dying. Most are having yellow spots, brown leaf margins that are drying up and leaf curl downwards. What is going on?

I have pictures but not sure how to upload!
That’s a tough one. It could be that you are watering too much or too little, or some type of disease or too little or too much fertilizer. What zone are you in?
In general, garden plants need good rich soil, with additions of compost and fertilizer. You have to have a light hand with adding things though. It’s always better with plants to add too little than too much.
If you’re a beginning vegetable gardener or even if you’re not, YouTube can be informative. I love Brian on California Garden TV. He is super knowledgeable and even though I’m not a beginner, still learn good tips from watching his videos on growing vegetables.
It sounds like they have not been watered enough. What is your watering regimen? If it hasn’t rained, some vegetables here in the south need to be watered daily, since the sandy soil drains fast and it’s very hot.
There could be other factors, of course, but that’s a guess.

Spots and leaf curl sounds like a disease or simply over fertilized. Need more info.
You can't post photos because you are new. Need to do 10 Citydata posts first.
What's your location? What has the weather been like? What kind of temperatures are you getting at day and night times? What kind of soil are they planted in?
