I don't know but fed my cucumber plant yesterday with tomato feed. I've already had 3 cucumbers off the plant so I suppose it must be growing ok. I'll be interested to read the replies also.
(I've never fed them in previous years.)
I have a pack of "Tomato and cucumber feed", so I'm sure their requirements must be similar.
Won't do them any harm at all. The higher (a) P and (b) K percentages in tomato fert should help cukes by promoting (a) flowers and (b) fruit.

I always feed my cucumbers with Tomorite. Having a brilliant crop. I feed my melons with it as well. Also feed my very early spuds in bags with it. You can feed most things with it. Get a good supply in.
This article on " fertilisers" might help;
And this one on " feeding times" will tell you when;
thank you to you all for the info the cucumbers had a nice drink last evening with the tomato feed,kind regards Chris
