Well it’s in the title… They were growing great but in the last days or so the leaves started wilting. They always showed some yellowing and I thought about nitrogen deficiency so I fed them with slurry but without success… Any tips?

No I don’t think so. In German it’s called “Jauche” and is a natural fertilizer that you get when you let plant parts (often nettle or goutweed) sit in water for a few weeks.
I thought the drainage of the soil was good enough. It’s potting soil mixed with ~ 10 % perlite for drainage. The pots I use are textile pots with good drainage and I try to wait wi watering until the soil is at least 3 - 5 cm dry.
Maybe you got have a point with your suspicion that the container maybe limiting the plants… Next year I’ll definitely plant my cucumber plants in a raised bed.
