Hello this is my first time growing cucumbers and I have no clue what can be causing this to happen to my leaves. Any advice is appreciated. TIA

You have numerous things happening to your plants. One is the beginning stages of powdery mildew as shown in picture #1, 2, and 3. You are keeping the soil too wet as shown by the yellowing/browning of the leaf margins and tips in picture #4. You have/had insects or mites eating the epidermis of the leaves causing the white spots as shown in all of the pictures. Stop watering so often, provide more ventilation such as with a fan and spray with a mitacide/insecticide such as Neem Oil. Spray either early AM or late afternoon early evening on BOTH sides of the leaves.

Thank you I was worried it would be anthracnose. Do you recommend I spray with neem oil once a week or just this one time? I was planning on moving them to bigger pots tomorrow morning hopefully that will help.

In your case just spray once and closely observe your plants. If you notice more damage spray again.
