It could be a number of things from simple nutrient deficiency 9possibly magnesium - try adding Epsom Salts next time you water) to CMV (Cucumber Mosaic Virus). If it's the latter, it's bad news. Could you take a couple of snaps of the plant, leaves and fruits and post them so we can get a better idea.
