Any ideas what's causing these holes in the leaves? At first I thought might be cuke beetles, but there are none to be found day or night. I'm wondering if it's spray damage. I've only used fish and seaweed so far. It's occurring on new and old leaves. Note how the holes all develop around the veins. Any ideas?

I don't think it's spray damage.

Almost looks like bird damage...only concern is the yellowing around the holes edges... almost looks like leaf spot. Here is an excellent diagnostic key. This website is packed with cucurbita information.
