Cucumber leaf problems

As you can see from this photo the top leaf growth has turned brown on my cucumber plant. They had suffered form blackfly however Ive been treating that with liquid derris. I have also tried spraying these plants with horseshoe compound last week which hasnt made much difference. They are grown against a wall in a growbag which does get a lot of sun. The weather has been inconsistent lately raining 1 minute and sunny the next, however even on a cloudy or rainy day temperatures have still been quite high and humid with not a lot of wind. A pea plant in a pot in the same area as the cucumber plant has also been affected. The top growth seems worst than the bottom leafs however these are still affected. I water using a watering can aiming at the roots so not to get any water on the leafs. I usually water about 5pm. Any help as to the cause of the problem or how it can be treated would be most appreciated. Thanks, Mike
