Concur: Cucumbers come in many shades. Some are almost white. Bonnie sells may varieties. I expect you got caught with the name tag switching that is a common occurance in most nurseries.
My cucumbers of various varieties seem to produce light green fruit as pictured but only occasionally. It seems to relate to extreme heat and they do taste slightly worse, although still better than most store bought cukes.
They do like more water than tomatoes and as such I water them minimally because they are planted together. Not sure if slightly too little water might cause the light fruits. Mostly make greek salad and gazpacho so I am not in favor of pickling cukes, personally. I prefer the pale ones, much sweeter. Typically they pickling cucumbers and are very tasty. They have a thinner skin than the dark green but usually more seeds.
There are varieties that are pale groon, other than some pickling cuke. They are some of the better ones. To wait until they turn more green but I have this one which is darker on one side than the underside which is more white in color. That is the same one that I have in my garden they are pale green and white and very very bitter inside what is that cucumber called?

If they are white because of excessive moisture or due to blanching, they may be ok to eat but lack in flavor. When in doubt, throw them out. If you planted standard green cucumbers and they turn white instead you have a problem. Powder Mildew Powdery mildew will start towards the upper surface of the fruit, where it is attached to the vine, and gradually spread across the entire fruit.
A healthy cucumber vine will showcase rich green stems and leaves. A plant that is pale green or yellow may be suffering from a disease, pest infestation or cultural problem.
Verticillium wilt is a soil-borne fungal disease that attacks crops at their roots, causing aboveground portions of the plant to gradually yellow and wilt. The disease may eventually kill the plant.
To help prevent wilt, practice crop rotation by moving your cucumber plants to a different location each season, advises PennState University's Plant Village , avoiding areas where other cucurbits have been grown.
Management Grow available resistant varieties. If the disease is severe, spray suitable fungicide. Dark pycnidia, extruding spore tendrils, evident in leaf spot. Septoria leaf spot symptoms- Dark pycnidia evident in leaf spot. Initial symptoms of disease are small dark water-soaked spots on the leaves which turn beige to white in dry conditions; lesions develop thin brown borders and the centers may become brittle and crack; small white spots may erupt on the surface of infected butternut and acorn squash and pumpkin fruit.
Management Scout plants during cool wet conditions for any sign of spots; early application of an appropriate protective fungicide can help limit the development of the disease if spots are found' cucurbits should be rotated with other crops every 2 years to prevent the build-up of inoculum; crop debris should be removed and destroyed after harvest. Micrograph of target spot lesion at 30X magnification.
Dark flecks are conidia of Corynespora cassiicola. Close-up image of target spot lesion on cucumber. The angular shape of lesions due to Corynespora. Target leaf spot symptoms on cucumber. Note the angular shape of lesions. Target leaf spot symptoms on cucumber foliage. Lesions on cucumber leaf caused by target leaf spot. Angular yellow spots appear on older leaves; as the disease progresses, the spots enlarge and become circular with light brown centers and dark margins; as lesions mature, they turn gray and drop out leaving holes in the leaves; if fruits become infected early in their growth then the blossom end may darken and become shriveled.
Fungus can survive on plant debris for periods in excess of 2 years; disease emergence favored by periods of high humidity and temperature. Management Plant resistant varieties; apply appropriate protective fungicide; sanitize equipment regularly. Symptoms generally appear after fruit set; chlorotic leaves which develop necrotic areas; leaves collapsing; symptoms only on one side of vine; discoloration of vascular tissue in roots.
Fungus can survive in soil for many years; disease emergence favored by cool or mild weather in Spring. Management Do not plant in areas where other susceptible crops have been grown previously; delay planting until temperatures are warmer.
Category : Bacterial. Severe foliar symptoms. Infected field. Angular leaf spot symptoms on cucumber leaf. Angular leaf spot symptoms on cucumber foliage. Initial symptom. Notice that lesions are delimited by veins in the leaf. Initial symptoms of angular leaf spot of cucumber Pseudomonas syringae pv. Angular leaf spot symptoms. Symptoms of angular leaf spot on cucumber leaves.
Spread through infected seed, splashing rain, insects and movement of people between plants; bacterium overwinters in crop debris and can survive for 2.
Management Use disease-free seed; do not grow plants in field where cucurbits have been grown in the previous 2 years; protective copper spray may help reduce incidence of disease in warm, humid climates; plant resistant varieties. Initial symptoms of the disease are the appearance of small water-soaked lesions on the undersides of the leaves which lead to the development of yellow patches on the upper leaf surface; the lesions become round and angular and may be mistaken for angular leaf spot; the centers of the lesions become thin and translucent and lesions become surrounded with a wide yellow halo.
Management Use disease-free seed; do not grow plants in field where cucurbits have been grown in the previous 2 years; avoid overhead irrigation, water plants from the base instead to reduce the spread of bacteria.
Severely affected plants will die. In diseased stems, slime strings form between cut stem sections as they're pulled apart. Cucumber plant infected with bacterial wilt. Bacterial stringing between vascular elements of the stem. Bacterial wilt Erwinia tracheiphila of cucumber. Wilted vine. Symptoms of bacterial wilt of cucumber.
Wilting cucumber vines caused by bacterial wilt. Individual runners or whole plant begins to wilt and rapidly die; infected runners appear dark green in color but rapidly become necrotic as the disease progresses. Management Control cucumber beetle populations on plants; hand pick adult beetles and destroy; soil and foliar application of appropriate insecticides may help to control populations.
May be phytoplasma disease on melon. Possible symptom. Proliferation of shoot may be due to phytoplasma. Foliage turning yellow; secondary shoots begin growing prolifically; stems take on a rigid, upright growth habit; leaves are often small in size and distorted, may appear thickened; flowers are often disfigured and possess conspicuous leafy bracts; fruits are small and pale in color.
Disease is transmitted by leafhoppers and can cause huge losses in cucurbit crops. Management Remove any infected plants from the field to reduce spread; control weeds in and around the field that may act as a reservoir for the phytoplasma; protect plants from leaf hopper vectors with row covers. As the infection progresses, leaves develop mottling and become blistered and distorted. Leaf symptoms are very difficult to distinguish from other mosaic viruses of Cucurbits.
Severity of symptoms varies depending on the strain of the virus. All Cucurbit species are susceptible to the virus, some cucumber varieties have been developed which have some resistance to the disease and are available in Canada and Europe. Management As the virus is spread primarily by infected seed, only disease-free seed from a reputable supplier should be planted. Seedlings and plants infected with the virus should be removed and destroyed to prevent spread.
The virus can be spread mechanically via tools and on hands, good sanitation should be practiced at all times to prevent virus transmission - disinfect all tools and equipment between uses by dipping in a solution of bleach or using a commercially available disinfectant such as Virkon.
Greenhouse cucumbers infected with cucumber mosaic virus. Cucumber mosaic symptoms on fruit. Cucumber mosaic symptoms. Cucumber mosaic symptoms on cucumber leaf. Cucumber mosaic virus symptoms on cucumber foliage. Plants are severely stunted; foliage is covered in distinctive yellow mosaic; leaves of plant curl downwards and leaf size is smaller than normal; flowers on infected plants may be deformed with green petals; fruits become distorted and are small in size; fruit is often discolored.
Transmitted by aphids; virus has an extensive host range; virus can be mechanically transmitted via tools etc. Management Control of the virus is largely dependant on the control of the aphid vectors; reflective mulches can deter aphid feeding; aphid outbreaks can be treated with mineral oils or insecticidal soap applications; some resistant varieties are available. Leaves appear with yellow and green mosaic pattern. Leaves may be puckered and distorted.
